Woof, woof, YES! We are headed home!
Land of plush doggie couches, 10th floor views of the coolest city ever! I can’t get there soon enough!
OK, you other people on the road don’t get in my way!

Uh, oh my people are taking a side trip! Side trips never work out for me. It usually means a long time in the rig, or me staying in the rig for awhile.

Where we stop is kind of nice, rose bushes, grape vines, HAY! Wait just a minuet here. Does this mean more sharing my space with stuff? “Maybe.” “We, can let you be with us for a picnic lunch; but dude, you gotta behave.”
I never cause any trouble! I am a good guy! A real cutie! I’ll just be cool and lay here till y’all get back.

There back! Just like they said, I’m with my people for lunch! YES! I just love being with my people, especially when there is good eats around.

Where is this place? “Ganey winery, outside Solvang.” Well, I like it!

We are now headed home, only we are going via the Santa Ynez mountain highway into Santa Barbara. Cool views and sucky traffic. GET OUTTA THE WAY!

There up ahead the 101; now will get this rig moving! Nope; sucky traffic. Man we will never get Home!

After what seams like an eternity; the traffic starts to move. Through, cough, my eyes are watering, L.A.

There it is! San Diego County line! Oh baby! I can smell downtown all-ready!
Traffic is moving; and pay dirt is right around the bend!

We made it! Home, sweet Home at last! I really don’t care about the unpacking of the rig; JUST GET ME UP THERE TO MY SOFA BED!

Ah; that is more like it! My bed, my patio, my smells, my city sounds; that I so dearly, LOVE!
My people too, seem happy to be home.
The best part of home for me, I DO NOT HAVE TO SHARE MY BED WITH ANYTHING!

I fall into my bed, and man you don’t have to wake me up for a long, long, time. I am tired of the road and; sorry eyes are heavy and I…..need…..my….rest……..
