Dog Day Afternoon

    So, yeah..I figured having two dogs cannot be any harder than one, right? Well, we like to travel a little and Shelly has always been a great road dog. So we figured the newest addition Maya, would learn the ropes as well. I mean, yeah she cries most of the ride to the vet, but hey..it's "The Vet".
    We had our travel plans all worked out. My mother would dog sit and we would have 4 wonderful days in Orlando. Yeah...do you know how loud a 6 month old hound can howl. Let me tell you, loud. We had a five hour drive..the first three..earmuffs anyone?
    During that "enjoyable" ride the hubs and I exchanged furtive looks. Neither would say what the other was thinking. No words were needed. The cries from the backseat was filling in for our unspoken gripes  words.
    Finally we arrived at my Mother's house. Yes, we were happy to be there, but I know we both had the same thought. Five days from now we still have to make the trip back. Shake it off! We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
   We had a great vacation and Mom enjoyed the time she spent with the girls. It was time to go home.
She slept the whole way. Go Figure.
