Just to keep everyone up-to-date I am adding this note to Jackson’s post. We are on a month-long road trip visiting the desert canyons in the American west. I enjoy traveling, but I always regret my best buddy can’t go on a lot of my adventures. This is one of two we have planned this year centered around Jackson joining in on the grand adventure. Jackson is going to be doing all of the blog posts. We will be posting our photographs on our Facebook pages (and a few here also!)

Woof, Woof, my human told me we traveled 500 miles and went through three states! I just wish I knew what a state was, is it a condition of being? Or what? Woof, well I won’t worry about it. I had a bunch of fun watching where we were going and along the way I got to visit my friend Maggie. I like to play with her, she is one of my good doggie friends that lives near a place called Lake Lure. She even gave me one of her toys the last time we visited her, what a dog! Then we got back in the truck and drove, and drove, and drove until it got dark. We did stop at one place where my human said he had taken pictures before. He said it was going to be torn down soon and wanted to take one last picture. He showed me the old photograph and I loved it because it has a dog in it, woof! Here it is!

Well Matt says we have to pack up and get on the road again to go to a place called Arkansas. He said we will be camping at a place called Lake Catherine State Park. Woof, a lake, maybe I can go swimming. I can’t wait, ruff, ruff! I will write from our next stop!
