Today is father's day and I am sad that I am not with my Papa. I think Captain is great, but today should be a day for the boys. I think my Papa is off on true adventures now too. Captain did a pretty good job of making it up and took me for a bunch of good tours. We started super early, even earlier than during the week and then had breakfast together before she was out the door in her running clothes. It was hut and humid so I understand why. When she came home, she too was sad because she missed a call from Papa. She made herself a smoothie with special yummy yogurt so her bones will be healthy and sat in that blue pool that Layla stood in yesterday. She is funny. I just laid down in the shade and watched her.
She left again with some bright orange shirt on. If I could read I would think it would say "Run Volunteer." There were over 5,000 people walking around the Island and for the 400 that were running, Captain made sure they made an important turn. She showed me the turn on a tour when she got home. I also noticed that there was one of those metal things with two wheels on it in the drive and she said it was hers. Hmmm, I should remind her that I don't like those things.
Captain left and came home with more groceries than usual. She needs to eat more and she was also trying to get some items for Papa like his milk. It was nice to see two gallons of milk coming into the house again. Now I know he is coming home. Oh, and she had more peanut butter and bananas for ME!!!! I love peanut butter and bananas. She also had a bag full of nuts and dried fruit and and fresh fruits that were on sale and that I don't think she has had in the house before. One was called papaya and she let me taste it. YUM. Papyameay. Plus, she tasted this thick smoothie like milk that is special for her bones and has a lot of protein in it. I think she liked it and she said it was surprisingly inexpensive. Speaking of food, I got my first pig ear in a long time, since the sickness. It was wonderful and I went to sleep quickly after eating it but did choose to lay near the bathroom door so I could feel the cool air. Captain said she would get me the fan down from upstairs tomorrow.
Finally, Captain took me outside and tied me to the tree while she watered the plants. She can't let me loose because of the crazy lady a couple doors down. She did keep my leash on me and played tug of war with me to make up for me missing Papa. It was fun but she quit when I tried to get my grip better and latched down on her hand. Papa is much better at tug of war. She said he has been rowing some boat at the gym (why is there a boat in the dessert let alone inside I have no idea) and that he is all ready to come and play with me.
