Jethro didn’t know it, but I saw him staring at himself in the mirror today. He is getting too much into this. I think we need an intervention. It could be my imagination, but I am starting to notice an accent. When he gets back to Williamsburg, if he says “you all” to anyone …
We spent our first night in the Airstream. I can’t say that it was uncomfortable. We had dinner together, put things away, and Jethro even watched Turner and Hooch with me (a must see for you dog lovers). I have a number of dog, neighbors, and one of them looks like Rin tin tin (really …
One would think I’d be use to this. But I’m not. I DO know the drill. Collect my toys and put them in my box. Take a deep breath and get in the back of the car with all of the other STUFF. Canines are creatures of habit. We are not built for this. And …
We now have an Airstream. Who knows where this rabbit hole might lead. Tomorrow we are on our way to North Carolina to meet the Airstream and the rest of the Clampetts. But I can’t complain. While I have never seen Jethro never really happy, seeing him at the Airstream, to quote Jed Clampett, …

I find it somewhat offensive …. When I have to go outside in the pouring rain to be relieved and I hear “SOMEONE ”commenting on the “wet dog” smell. I didn’t have to go outside- I could have gone inside instead- but I didn’t. When I wake Richard up in the morning, and when …
No, this is not Marquis de Lafayette. He wasn’t born until 1753. This is my bud Mark Schneider. He portrays the role of Lafayette in 2023 in Colonial Williamsburg. He is very good at what he does. I have to chuckle when he engages Richard in conversation. Mark does not break from his role …
And as immodest as it may be, I find that I must share my accomplishments, so that people just don’t think that I lay around and bask in the sun. Over the generations, I have become quite an accomplished tennis player. Decades of practice will allow one to do that, even a canine. …
You would think that one of of the challenges of jumping from 1750 to 2023 would be dress. How do you just appear in 2023 wearing clothes from 1750? In most places this would be a problem. In Williamsburg it is not. When you see an old man and an adorable Labradoodle sitting on the …
