Hi, Hershey -

Hershey's letter to Kaci (part of a tag)

Hi, everyone -

We were tagged by Twister and Furby to tell them how our parents make us happy dogs. Here is Hershey's letter to Kaci

Dear Kaci -

Mama took me for a walk tonight. We met some really nice people. One lady we knew from before. We saw her walking our friends Monty, Zoey and Lexie. Mama, Papa and I can hardly wait when we come to visit you in two weeks. We will have so much fun.

I am in big TROUBLE

Hi everyone -

This is Hershey speaking. Just when I thought I could not find any more mischief to get into - I sure found some last night. Mama had come home from work and Papa and I were out in the back yard. Papa went down in the basement to put something away and Mama was trying to get some homework done. I decided to do some investigating and went over to my neighbor's yard. Papa came outside to find me to see that I was not in the yard. He tells Mama that I took off and Mama got really nervous. We live too close to our street so she ran out really quick and started yelling for me. Papa did see me in the neighbor's yard and gave me "the look." I ran back into the yard and the house and I got yelled at for not staying in the yard.

If that was not enough, Papa went out with me again last night and this time a skunk invaded our yard. Personally, I thought the little bugger was cute so I went to see - and got sprayed for trying to be nice. I went to go back to the house but I wanted to see the skunk again. But Papa picked me up and I had to get a bath last night. I guess I really "screwed up" big time.

Fort Griswold

Hi, everyone -

Since some of our blogging buddies go to the park once in a while, Mama and I (Hershey) thought we would show you some pictures of Fort Griswold State Park.

The stairs in the Monument (there are 166 steps to the top)

This is the street we live on

The Gold Star Memorial Bridge

The Gold Star Memorial Bridge goes from Groton (where Mama, Papa and I live) to New London. Mama used to drive the bridge to go to work - now Papa does. The bridge that is open right next to it is the Amtrak bridge (train bridge). The Gold Star Memorial Bridge is also part of Route 95.

If you enlarge the middle picture, you can see our house - just the roof. It is on the right hand side and it is the black roof right in front of the white roof (the lower right corner). Have a good weekend everyone.

Hershey and Kaci

We hope everyone had a Happy 4th of July

Hi, everyone -
