• A Fond Farewell to Ashevegas….

    Today’s Fortune: Give a hug to someone who needs one more than you. That is good advice. There is always someone in need of a hug. Sunday, June 28th was our last day in Ashevegas. The time passed way too quickly. Mom got a good picture of me and all my friends before we checked out of the hotel room. I decided to wear my Ninja Pirate outfit. Dharma really likes that one. After we got checked out of the hotel, we went to a place called World Cup Coffee Cafe.  They had really good coffee and desserts.  I shared…

  • Hugging Pugs and Other Fun Stuff….

    Today’s Fortune: Others are attracted to your endearing warmth. This fortune is very true. Everywhere I went in North Carolina, people seemed to love me!  Even dogs seem to be attracted to my endearing warmth! After dinner at the Fiddlin’ Pig, we went to Puggerhugger’s house to take her boys home, and pick up her knitting so she could knit some at the hotel with Mom and Knittymac. I was very excited, because I got to meet all of the pugs that live at her house!! My very favorite is Easter. Easter is tan, and looks a lot like my…

  • Me & Darling Dharma at The Fiddlin’ Pig!!

    Today’s Fortune: You will become better acquainted with a coworker. I think that was supposed to be somebody else’s fortune, because I don’t have any coworkers. He must have gotten my cookie confused with somebody else’s. That’s okay. He does a pretty good job most of the time, so I will cut him some slack. Saturday evening, after a day of monkey fun and boring yarn shopping, we got to go have dinner at a place called The Fiddlin’ Pig. It was a Barbecue Birthday Bash for our friend Knittymac! We had the whole gang there! I checked out the…

  • Monkeys at Mast General Store….

    Today’s Fortune: One old friend is better than two new ones. I think this is a silly fortune. I don’t think you can have too many friends, ever. I have lots of old friends, but I always like making new ones. Saturday, June 27th was our only full day in Ashevegas, so we had to cram lots of fun into one day.  It started out with a trip to a place called Mast General Store. Mast is a wonderful place! They have all kinds of good stuff there. They had lots of monkeys there, including colorful sock monkeys that we…

  • Monkey Party at the Holiday Inn….

    Today’s Fortune: Stop searching. Happiness will come to you. Happiness always does come to me. When we finished up our visit to the Red Heel Monkey Shelter, we decided to go check into our hotel room. We were supposed to meet our friends Knittymac and Puggerhugger, but they called and said that they would be late, because they had car trouble, which didn’t sound like much fun at all. We went up to the hotel room, and me and Sassy and Mike Bison spent some time looking through the notebook that tells all about the hotel, while Mom unpacked all…

  • Ready for Tractor Travels!!

    Today’s Fortune: Your curious nature will take you someplace special. Wow! This fortune was right on the money! Yesterday, my curious nature (and my Mom) took us to Wal-Mart. We had to get my brother’s oil changed in his car. He is letting us drive it to Ashevegas, which is where my curious nature will take us tomorrow.   That way, we don’t have to go all the way back to the airport to rent a car. That will save us lots of time. His car is fun to ride in, but it is a long way to Ashevegas. I think…

  • Leaving on a Jet Plane….

    Today’s Fortune: You will travel to far away places. I guess my fortune cookies know I’m going on a trip. We will be heading out for Fayetteville, North Carolina to visit my brother, and then we will go see the Tractor Girls next weekend at Ashevegas. It is just me and Mom and Sassy going though. Dad has to stay here. We wish he could come with us. Sassy and I have been so busy I hardly noticed that Mom didn’t let me blog for the last ten days! We’ve been doing all kinds of fun stuff. We went to…
