Athens, Caleb, Rain, and Twilight

So this past weekend wore me out. I decided to go to Athens with my parents. I would have stayed home but they still think I am too young to be left alone. However I do find it unfair that Sasha and Alfie get to stay home. Cats… Lucky, they don’t live in a cage, they get to climb to the roof, and they sleep in the bed with parents when they want. I think they mock me at night when I am in my crate. Anyways, My mom, Dad, and I went to Athens. I love riding in the car with them. As you can see my favorite spot is on the center console. I typically face backwards so I can see out the back window. Dad is on the left, and mom is driving. I think I was looking for a snack down below. Anyways when we got to Athens I had a BIG surprise. Caleb was there! He is my mom’s sister’s dog. Lots of fun to play with. I think we both wore each other out. I ran around so much I got dizzy and threw up… Hey I am a puppy.  One of the nice things about going to Athens is since the cats are not around I get to sleep with my parents in their bed. It was very nice. I slept on Dads leg one night.

The next day parents went for a bike ride while I slept in and then played with Caleb. When they came home they got me ready to go to Athens Twilight. This is a big Bike race in Athens that mom and dad both love.  All day long it had been raining, so I was a bit worried that it was going to rain on us at the race.  I was right, as always. When we first got there we walked around and met a few people. I met Nathan for the first time and Nick. I thought Nick and I were going to go hang out with the parents around but he was more interested in watching the race than taking me for a walk. When we were walking around people came up to say hi. It was kinda funny, one guy showed me his photos of his pugs, and there were like 4 more people that said they had a pug too… Not sure why they didn’t bring them. I have good parents. While my parents were hanging out and eating funnel cake, which I tried to get some, I just enjoyed the moment, sniffing things and letting the kids pet me. It was fun…until…. Then the rain came. Right as the Women’s race was about to start it started to pour!!! I had my jacket, but it was no match for the soggy drenching I was about to receive. Dad left mom and me in the VIP section while he walked across the track to the Start to take photos (see his photos). This was the start of the women’s race.

The race was very cool, just wish it wasn’t raining. I also didn’t get as much sleep as I should have. You can actually see me in this photo, I am standing to the far left with my mom, it was really dark, and yes wet. Can’t believe these people ride bikes in this stuff.

After a while standing in the rain got old, I tried to crawl up Moms leg and hide from the rain. She finally got the hint and we walked over to meet dad one last time before we left. I really enjoyed Athens, and can’t wait to go back, just no more rain please.
