Up North...

Mama took me up north for the weekend.
Loved it!

Did a bit of walking practice on Saturday afternoon with my fancy dancy shopping cart after our long car ride......Woke up at the break of dawn on Sunday (because my bedroom has no blinds...but Gramp's is going to fix that, right?) and got right down the the business of perfecting my walking with TWO walkers...simultaneously of course. Too fast for pictures, sorry.

Monday, break of dawn, big day coming.

I wanted to be somewhere I wasn't (I was dog watching at the gate and wanted to be with people) so I let go and walked.

Alone. No warning to the sitting humans in the room.

No hands kind of walking. Took 8 or 9 steps, figured that was enough for a first effort and sat down to continue old style (crawling). Then I did it again and again and again every chance I got.

Mama was a bit weepy. I don't quite get that.

Monday was beautiful and walking just for the sake of walking was getting a bit old so I headed out to the garden.To study the flora and fauna...
Direct the grand units to get busy with the tilling and planting...Do a bit of raking...Rest...
Stand about observing my domain...And to end it all perfectly a swing before the big drive home.Great time!
