I got all buckled in and was ready to roll in no time:

| "All set, Mom! Let's go!" |
I've decided I quite like car rides, much to Mom's delight.
Mom can be very stubborn sometimes. I decided to nap with my head on the gear shift.
I think it would have been more enjoyable if Mom drove an automatic instead of a 5-speed standard transmission. She kept making me move my little head!
When we got to the Veterinary Health Center at Kansas State University, we went in and I got to meet a few people, jumped on the scale for a weight check, and basically just had a fun trip so I get comfortable going there.
We didn't take any pictures inside, but when we got outside, Mom wanted to take my picture in front of the sign. She set her purse up on the wall and asked me to sit. I decided I should jump up on TOP of the wall instead! Check out my pose:
Mom was impressed that I jumped up there all by myself. It's about 3-4 feet high.
I also posed on a bench and ... wait a minute.
I had to check it out!
It's a statue. You can see Cammie posing by it at this link. Mom tried to get me to pose by it, but I didn't want to.
We got back into the car and Mom said we could take the scenic way home!

 |
| "I can smell the sea air!!!" |
Do you all know where we went?!? Yes! To the Kansas Ocean!
 |
| "It's frozen solid, Mom!" |
It was a great training run. I just love going in the car - and seeing all the kind people at the vet school!
Thanks for coming with me!
Yours sincerely,
Margaret Thatcher
What a NICE outing/Training RUN.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love the smelling the sea air picture and the posing picture. :D She's is so adorable!
ReplyDeleteMaggie that was a fun run and we are glad the blood stealers didn't do anything nasty and you got to stop off at the ocean. Nice one. Have a tremendous Thursday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
we bet everyone fell in love with you :) we like the idea of a training run for something like that (OK - not for US mind you, but still)
ReplyDeleteCar rides are SO fun, aren't they?! I love them. But I usually get a cheeseburger, if it's not a car ride to Grandma's house. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteOooh! We love training runs like that! But we're with Casey - training runs should definitely involve cheeseburgers!

Great job Maggie. A training run is such a silly name. But it did look like a fun adventure
