Traveling from Tampa to Virginia

Wow - I got to sniff lots and lots of bushes for three days! Strange but interesting smells along the way.

The Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia provided cooler weather than the 90 degree in Tampa! And I enjoyed the motels - especially the king-sized beds!

I was very glad to reach Philly and see Josh again! He has a new dog, a pretty black female named Shanny. Pix coming soon!

Road Trip!

Oh Boy, oh boy!

We're taking a road trip starting this Saturday, and I'm so excited! Mom's Equestrian Book Tour will have us stopping at independent book stores and tack shops from here to Connecticut. We'll be gone from September 19 - 28.

She'll be looking for horse stories for her fourth book of the BELOVED HORSES series. She's gathering names of horses now and will be interviewing their owners after the holidays.

We'll also be visiting Josh in Philly, and I heard he has a female dog. Hmm... I'll have to check her out!

Most important. we'll be visiting the stable where our horse, Sonny. is retired and where my cute girlfriend, Tinkerbelle, lives! Time for a happy dance!

I wasn't allowed to attend this book signing at Wilson's Books in St. Petersburg today, but my paw print was included in the sales of my book, Woogie's Travels - Looking For a Friend.
