It's My Birthday .....Let's party!!!

It just seem like the last 5 years has gone by so darned fast......just yesterday I was just a pup...yep that's me...

and then I grew bigger and strong enough to actually go somewhere like with my people persons HP and WP into a wild place called the Bob Marshall Wilderness.   It was a really long walk but I made it all the way and actually got to go fishing......here I am sitting on the banks with my brother and sister in an enchanted place called the Danaher.  By the way that's me in the middle...

I absolutely love going on trips....and in my short life I have been so many places.....HP and WP always go to Yellowstone in the winter...it sort of stinks, well the air does with rotten egg smells...but then I get to look out the window at all the animals.....bison, elk and deer but the ranger person says I have to stay on a leash inside the park so a coyote or wolf doesn't eat me up.....I am so small I wouldn't make a very good meal and why would a relative want to eat me anyway?

I have been to a lot of different states too, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington and British Columbia and even to Alaska traveling with HP and WP in a huge rolling tin can called the motorhome. That was a cool trip but a long one...Wish they would let me drive......I watched HP the whole trip and really think I could do it.....maybe not I don't think my paws would reach the pedals..

This year I learned how to go boating too.   All the way to the San Juan Islands to get HP's new boat Salty.   Looks like we are going to have some kind of fun next summer. I checked out the seals in the harbour.....another critter I have to be very wary of I hear......my brother Charlie got knocked off the dock by Annie when she was getting out of the boat......Ha I didn't know he knew how to fly and even better how to swim in salt water.... he didn't look too happy when HP pulled him out of the drink!

I know I need to get better pictures and promise to do that in the future but for now WP is helping me out......my paws sort of get in the way but I will maybe ask for a better camera with bigger shutter buttons. Maybe when I grow up I can be a model I think I have the poses down pat what do you think??

Happy 5th Birthday to me!!!
