All Day in the Car!?

It was just as I feared. I woke Mom and Dad up at 5 a.m. and then the first thing I knew, we were in the car. Mom drove for three hours down to Zuni while I slept in Dad's lap. Then Dad drove to Gallup, and then to Santa Fe while I slept in Mom's lap; we got back to Joseph's casita at about 6 p.m. On the plus side, I did catch up on my sleep.

In Zuni, Mom and Dad bought mainly fetish carvings. I woke up a couple of times to bark at the Dogs of Zuni. We did have lunch, with me getting a couple of milk bones and a chew on an old marrow bone.

In Gallup, Mom and Dad bought a bunch of stuff, and I did get to go into the store -- they were all very friendly, although Dad wasn't about to let me get to their lunch leftovers (I certainly tried!).

Tonight we're settled in while Mom watches "Dancing With the Stars." She promises me that tomorrow will be more interesting with the two of us up in Santa Fe, while Dad chases around down in Madrid with Tom the Gate Guy, trying to at least get a gate installed, even if we can't get a well drilled before we leave. (There's another storm coming in tomorrow.)
