Sam and I had quite the adventure today! We were just settling down for another fun-filled day of fighting floof and laundry, when we got a message from our friends Miche and Bill of
The Adventures of Sammie and Avalon. They are passing through Arizona and due to some issues with their travel trailer are spending an extra day or two here. Sam and I thought this would be a great opportunity to meet some of our great blogging/Facebook friends and immediately hopped in the truck and headed south.
 |
| I hope they like me! |
Sammie and Avalon were wonderful! We took them out in the desert and let them have some off leash time....
 |
| The fuzzy butts are off and exploring! |
Avalon is a champion hole digger and she gave all the dogs plenty of things to keep busy with.
 |
| Dig dig dig dig dig dig dig.... |
Even Sam was intrigued by the holes!
 |
| I had no idea this was down here! |
Samantha and Sam enjoyed snootering through the fresh dirt.
 |
| What did you find in this hole? |
 |
| These roots are quite tasty! |
The excavating continued....
 |
| Hmmm... I better shore up this hole.... |
Sam tired himself out....
 |
| I'm gonna need a nap.... |
...and so did Avalon!
 |
| Just claiming this whole dirt pile as mine! |
Sammie took time to remind us she needed some attention...
 |
| A little to the right, please! |
We managed to get the pups to pose together for a photo. From left to right: Avalon, Samantha, and Sam
 |
| We represent the Golden Retriever color palette, from light to dark red. |
Avalon decided she had enough of posing for pictures - she was off for another round of hole digging!
 |
| Samantha: Pups.... Sam: Yup. I've got one too! You will meet him on your way back... | | | | |
We had a wonderful afternoon and once again marveled at how many wonderful friends we made through blogging. Thank you Samantha, Avalon, Miche and Bill!
 |
| I had a wonderful day! |
...and yes, we left Monty out again. We are working on being able to take him and Sam in the truck together. There is less room than the car, so longer trips are a little tricky. Stay tuned for further adventures!
What fun! Oh I wish I could have been there to get my Golden fix. ;)
ReplyDeleteWoof! Woof! Oh My! Lots of Golden FUN. We read on their FB that they are on the road again. How FUN to meet them. We hope to meet them too. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
