On Saturday, Spooky and I and our humans made a trip to Grand Forks. On the way we made a quick stop at Sherack to take some pictures. Not much there but a couple old grain elevators and a house. I'm guessing three people may be the entire population of the burg.
So why did they want pictures of the little bump in the road? They were talking about a poem my person had written back in about 1998. That's waaay before I was born! Anyway, it seems they wanted photos to go with that poem. Silliness. If it doesn't feed you, pet you, or let you out, well, in my opinion, it isn't good for much.
After they got their photos, we went on to Grand Forks where they go in and out of buildings like chickens. Spook and I get to sit in the vehicle whenever the peeps decide to go into a building. There is only one store they take us into in GF -- it's the one where they get collars, leashes, and such -- oh, and usually some exotic treats we've never seen before. That's fun! There are other customers with dogs and pets, so it can be exciting. And the things to smell! That is heavenly.
But this trip, they didn't stop at that store, so Spook and I spent the time in the truck. It was fun, though. The weather was just right for it - not too hot and not too cold. While our humans go into buildings, we canines check out all the people going to and fro and bark them away from our truck. Our humans have no idea how hard we work at that while they go trippin' around like they haven't a care in the world. Well, they always have a pat and a few words for us when they get back. Never a thank you, though, I've noticed. Oh, well, we do enjoy the job.
I get so nervous when we get to GF, because I just want to go to McDonalds. They always make me wait and wait. I was sure this time they had forgotten, but finally they stopped at McDonalds for me. Spook isn't very interested in Macs, so when they go there, it is just for me! Makes me feel so special, not to mention full of lip smackin' Macs. Ah, yes, worth the trip!
