Making friends

June 16, 2018
Irvington Campground
Menomonie, Wi

 The campground host invited me to play with one of their playground balls.  She said I would make a great soccer player. 

 It was a dull gray ball, but it rolled really well.

Today, our neighbors went shopping and bought a ball just for me.  A rainbow colored ball that I can take wherever I go.  Now how cool is that?

So not only are we staying in a great campground.  I also get to play on the farm with cousin Murphy. 

He is so lucky to have so much land and green grass to romp in.  


And then there are all the other friends on the farm.  Now, I have to admit, their size is a bit intimidating.  But I have found if I keep on the opposite side of the fence, they can't get to me. 

I had a short conversation with one of my new friends and asked him what he does all day.  He has led a very sheltered ..stay at home life, unlike me. He said he sees loading in the backseat of the truck as a real problem which really limits his exposure to just the farm.  I think I'll keep my lifestyle.

I even got invited inside and played with Cousin Corey and his father Don.  I think they both love me.

I can be rather fun to play with and pet.

 Yes, it is very enjoyable here.  Momma got to enjoy sitting on the porch and catching up with Missy while Murph and I got to know one another.  Murphy did tell me there is one rule you cannot break....Don't run in the garden.  Somehow I keep forgetting....well not really forgetting so much as my paws just get carried away romping and the next thing I know, everyone is yelling, "NO,  DON'T RUN IN THE GARDEN"   Oops!! Well, once you are in the middle of the garden, you HAVE to run to get back out.  I wonder if Missy's vegetable plants are tough and hardy!! They'll have to be if I hang around much longer.

Sorry Missy😏😔  I really didn't mean to do it. Murphy will explain.....

It's time to say good bye to the farm as we are hitching up tomorrow....... more adventures at the end of the highway.  

I'm Chloe
