Saga is snoring at the foot of the bed in the hotel. It must
be tiring riding around in the kennel all day, occasionally whinging; as if
asking me when it will be time to stop. Perhaps this is a dogs way of repeating
“Are we there yet!?”
No wonder I am tired! I got in, checked into the hotel,
walked the dog, unpacked the few things I need for the night, took a quick
shower, and headed down to the pool for a swim. It is HOT outside, and the sun
is beating down on the walkways outside. I assumed from my total lack of paying
attention to such things, that it was mid-afternoon. It is, in fact, just short
of seven and according to the time stamp on my receipt from the hotel, I have
been here just under an hour. So, as I say, no wonder I am so tired: Saga and I
left home just about twelve hours ago.
It has been a long day of driving and although the drive was
lovely, it also ate-up a lot of time. By either of my usual routes, I should be
in I-29 near the turn-off to head east into Minnesota. Instead of being just
over an hour from Dad’s place, I am just over half-way there.
But the day and the drive have been lovely, I have seen
things and places that I have not seen before, so all-in-al, not a bad day! In
fact, I would say it has been an excellent day full of an entertaining book on
audio, and the company of my pooch. Who could ask for more? I think it is time
to turn in now so I will close this out.
Wherever you are today I hope you have had an excellent day!
