We are all packed and ready to head to the North Woods tomorrow. Looks to be cold, but hopefully the fair weather hunters left a bird or two for us. The pups, all three, are anxious to go. They see us packing and become "truck watchers," hoping to be called to "kennel" for the ride North. Always interesting to have a puppy along for the trip. It will be year 35 for the humans on this trip...as Elaine says, "hard to believe the time has gone so quickly."
