Day 37

What a fun day full of adventure on the Island. The Captain and I did our usual tour and then she left for a long time with those wierd paw covers. She said she was goning to race in them and I gave her a big wet kiss for Good Luck. I guess it worked because she said she came in second place in her age group.

After she talked to my Papa on that box thing, she put layers back on and thick paw covers and got her wierd paw covers out again. I got sad because I wanted to go outside, but then I noticed she was loading the ferry up with stuff for me too!!! YIPPIE. She drove me to a part of the Island still covered in deep white fluffy stuff covered in deep white fluffy stuff I have never been to with little rivers we had to cross on white fluffy stuff covered bridges and lots of trees (none that wear skirts, but tons and tons of her sisters and brothers). There were lots of hills in a part of it and Captain could move almost as fast as me with those fancy paw covers. I loved playing in the fluffy stuff that no one had been in and jumped and ran, and dug for sticks.

I even ventured out to explore the water that was flowing, but Captain made me come back when she heard cracking noises. She said I was standing on frozen water, it did feel cold once she mentioned it, and that it could break and I would regret it. I have seen stories of four legged ones being rescued by two legged ones and sure don't want that to happen. We played and played and explored all sorts of fun areas, I would run ahead but then stop and check on the Captain. We were there for a long time and I was so tired that I slept in the ferry and immediately went on my fuzzy blanket on the leather cushion and went fast to sleep for the rest of the night.
