Day 43

This Island needs picked up. Now that the white stuff is melting, there is all sorts of yummy stuff to find. Even more than yesterday, I found all sorts of stuff on our tour this morning and left a lot of it alone, but there were some goodies too good to pass up. I did snag some peanut shells before the Captain noticed and then had to drop a flyer, piece of newspaper, and this unidentifiable object that the Captain saw and told me to drop. We didn't turn back so that I could see what it was. Much of these items were just on the ground near the piles of white stuff along the tour paths. I still loved climbing on these piles and prefer to do my business on the tip top of them which is quiet challenging now because I just sink into the pile rather than staying on top like I did when it was colder. I even found one item that the Captain let me carry home, though she made me put it in the blue bin when we got through our gate. I think I made a big difference helping save the Island and the environment today--the Captain told me the bins are made to recycle materials.


It was so warm today that the Captain went out for her run in shorts and a funny looking bright green shirt with a hat and paw covers that made her look like a frog. I barked to protect the house while she was gone because the neighbors were moving their stuff into a big truck and were making weird noises. I don't want them to take my friend Cooper away with all their stuff. Captain must have realized this was what I was barking about and took me out to play with Cooper and Ely. I saw one neighbor coming out of her house and we all went to visit her, but she didn't like it and instead of saying hi kept yelling something like "shoo" to us and seemed afraid or something. I don't know what "shoo" means, but I stuck around to wait until she said hi to show her we were all nice. She slammed the door in our face and yelled something at the Captain that made her feel bad. I have a feeling I won't be able to play out there anymore and will be tied to Captain's paw and have to go to the big green place for playtime for now on.
