Labor day

We had a pretty nice weekend, all things considered.  Roger's brother and his wife came over on Saturday afternoon.  Sat around and talked for a couple hours and then went out to eat at Chili's.  On Saturday night, we took the pups to bed with us for the first time.  That didn't work out so well.  Merlin settled himself under the comforter at the foot of the bed and slept the whole night.  Rex thought it was too hot under the comforter, so he slept on top but under the blanket from his cage.  Toby, who we thought would settle right in, was up most of the night.  He couldn't seem to find a comfortable spot, so he kept moving around the bed.  He woke me several times licking my face.  We were both dragging the next morning.
     on Sunday afternoon, we drove out to Freedom Valley, the gay campground about an hour from our house.  We're considering getting a camper, but I found out Sunday that we are 23 on the waiting list and the only sites that will become available now are through attrition, since the owners are not opening any more sites.  It looks like it will be a few years before we can camp for the summer, unless we find another campground.  All of our friends are at Freedom Valley, so that would kind of cancel out the point of camping.
