We Survived
Well, Oreo and I survived our week together. So long as he got his daily morning walk at the local dog run, his evening neighborhood stroll and two square meals a day, he was perfectly happy. No major incidents to report apart from some morning frolicking by Oreo with other dogs at Conroy Pit.
One twist on the week came on Friday. I decided to visit Sarah and Cheryl and their companions at their rental cottage. That meant, of course, taking Oreo with me. A two and a half hour ride in a car promised to be eventful but Oreo was fine. He behaved fairly well at the cottage although I think everyone was happy that we were only staying one night. I think that was a reflection on Oreo but, in hindsight, perhaps it was because of me!
The ride back was also uneventful. We took an alternate route due to the summit at Montebello, Quebec with Bush, Harper and Calderon. I think we could have gotten through but we played it safe and travelled via Lachute and Hawkesbury instead.
