The Journey Home

Early the next morning, I made my way back to WARB to pick up the girls. Pat was as gracious as she had been the day before. We went through the paperwork, certificates, adoption, vaccinations and receipts. They all got new collars, a supply of food, micro-chip identification. We all went to the living room, where I sat on the big chair and the girls all piled on me for a photo opportunity. Then loaded into the SUV and we began the journey home. The snow fall of the previous evening had left just a dusting, and as we pulled away the large flakes began to fall.

Unlike the trip down, I had decided that it best to drive straight through to home, with no overnight stays. Luckily the Washington State highways have perhaps the best rest areas anywhere. They have areas to exercise and poop and pee your pooch! And so the road trip began with obligatory stops of drinks and pee's. A little romp and back into the SUV to the next gas station or rest area. The romping was fairly short lived at some places, due to the cold and snow.
