I just saw a MONSTER!

Sunshine here! Mom said we need to start building up muscles for our trip to Gettysburg. We got extra food tonight and went for an extra long walk! A whole 45 minutes with not a lot of sniffing... Rainy and I both like the extra food part! Yum!

It was just dark and we passed kids on bikes, other people out for walks by themselves (they should get puppies so they have company) and we passed lots of cars. We even saw a homeless kitty! We've been walking by this place before so it wasn't too new to us. Some kid help yelling and pointing at me. He was my size and scared me, we didn't even get near him!

We were almost at the end of the walk and then this loud monster came by! It shook the ground! It was on the other side of the fence but only about 10 feet away. We all froze and Rainy looked at it with her ears perked up. I could tell mommy was surprised cause she forgot to breath... I did not try to run. I did not back up out of my collar. I did not buck up and twist around. I did not fear poop. I did not glue my tail to my belly. (it was a little tucked though...) I did not drop to the ground in a crap crawl. I did not even shake once!!!!!

I turned so my butt was leaning against mommy and stood there looking in front of us and in back of us while this monster went by. It was really really long...

Finally mommy got bored waiting for it to pass and in a very loud (so we could hear her) voice told us to keep on marching. We kept walking while this loud monster shook the ground next to us and I was BRAVE! I never once shook or tried to hide.

When we got back home mommy hugged me and started crying while giving me cookies. Not sure why she was crying... The monster didn't hurt us.  I think I'll be much braver this year in Gettysburg. Maybe some day those loud motorcycles won't scare me either...
