Party

Somebody is having a party on my trails.

And it’s not me.

I found this can on my trails and it says Party right on it.

What person? I thought you said that word was Party.

I don’t get it. How can it say Party if it doesn’t say Party?

What do you mean there are more than one people languages? That doesn’t make sense. I thought there was just people language and dog language. Oh, and cat language but that doesn’t count.

Whatever that language is, I’m going after those partiers. The nerve of those people, having a party on my trails without inviting me.

Which way did they go? They must be close by. I bet they left when they heard us coming because they didn’t know it was me.

Maybe if I get my party hat they’ll come out.

Hey, check this out. Those partiers didn’t leave at all. They’re right here.

It’s an ant party!

I sure hope they clean up their mess when they’re finished.

Looking for Loves

04 Jul

Look at this! There’s a little bike parked here. And by the looks of it, it belongs to a little girl.

That means a little girl is on my trails. Woo woo! I like getting loves from little girls. Come on person, we’ve got to go find her.

Hurry up, person. Stop dragging your feet. I’ve got to find that little girl. I want my little girl loves.

No, she isn’t here. Maybe she’ll be around the next corner.

Wait a minute! What if she took a different trail? What if I never find her? What if we finish our walk and the little bike is gone and there’s no little girl. That could be a serious disaster.

Come on person. We’ve got to check all the trails. We’ve got to find that little girl before she gets away. She could be around any one of these bends in my trails.

I’m so disappointed. I can’t find that little girl anywhere —oh wait. Here she is! And she’s smiling at me.

I know this little girl. She’s given me loves before.

Little girl loves are the best!

Hey person, can we take this little girl home with us? Maybe we could trade her for Scratchy.

Strange things keep showing up in my trail lost and found. Check this thing out. It looks like a giant briefcase. I’m not sure if that’s what it is, but if I find a giant suit and tie a ways up my trails I’ll know that’s what it is.

Maybe a salesman came here, wanting to sell feather dusters to all the people on my trails – after all there is a lot of dust here. But when he got to the trailhead he realized nobody was waiting there for him and he’d have to go hiking to find people.

Or maybe a business man got the directions for his corporate meeting mixed up. He got to the trailhead and had to go looking for the meeting.

It’s a what, person? A sleeping pad? You mean someone’s been sleeping on my trails again? I wonder if the person is related to the one who left their sleeping bag here awhile ago.

Is anyone looking right now?

This’ll teach people not to sleep on my trails.

I don’t want this to come across wrong, but I think this is appropriate. This post is for Trevor, a recently lost friend from Collies of the Meadow.

I’m Famous

29 Jun

I’m really getting famous. People I’ve never met before know who I am. It would be kind of embarrassing if it wasn’t so much fun.

I was walking along my trails with my person and I was a little way ahead or her. We were coming up on an intersecting trail and a lady came jogging toward me.

Suddenly the lady said, “Bongo!” as if I was her long lost friend and started giving me loves.

Woo woo! This is so cool. Loves that I didn’t ask for from someone I’ve never met before.

Hey person, I bet that never happened to you.

What, person? What are you saying?

She knew me why?

No way.

My person says the other day when I ran off took a walk by myself this lady was on my trails with her dogs and my person asked her to keep an eye out for me.

My person says the lady was happy to see that I was found.

Hey person, I was never lost. I knew where I was the whole time.

And I don’t think that was the same lady. I’m sure the one who gave me loves has been reading my blog and recognized me from my pictures.

Litter Bugs

26 Jun

I am so upset. My trails are usually kept really clean, but the other day I found that stuff left by the crack creatures – and now this. And there aren’t even any cracks around this part of my trails.

So who can be leaving this stuff?

They’re obviously friends of the crack creatures – or – maybe they’re not.

Maybe they’re having a littering duel. To see who can litter the most.

This is terrible! This means I could be finding more litter on my trails. I’m going to have to do something about this.

I know! I’ll get one of those litter bugs. Or maybe a whole army of litter bugs. They get rid of litter, don’t they?

They could go wandering along my trails and eat all the litter they find. The way things are going lately they would find plenty to eat.

There’s just one thing I still have to figure out.

Once the crack creatures and those other guys run out of litter to leave on my trails – what do I do with the litter bugs?

Creatures in Cracks

20 Jun

Check this out. I found some really strange things on my trails. A plastic bag thingy and a metal box. And both of them are close to cracks in the rocks.

You know what that means. It means there are creatures that live deep down in those cracks, and they’re cleaning house. They’re moving stuff out that they don’t want any more.

Someone needs to tell those crack creatures about littering. Just because they don’t want something in their house doesn’t mean they have to leave it cluttering up my trails.

After all, what if all the creatures who live in cracks around here started cleaning house at the same time. Can you imagine what a mess that would be? Plastic bag thingies and metal boxes all over the place. They might even start throwing out dust bunnies and single socks. That could make a big mess on my trails.

I wonder how far down in the cracks those creatures live. I’d better see if I can get to them and give them what for.

Then I’m going to make them take all their stuff back and put it in garbage cans so the crack creature garbage truck can stop by to pick it up.

Broke My Leash

19 Jun

What do you mean I don’t get to go for a walk? You and my younger person left me home alone all day and now I don’t even get a walk?

What does that matter? Just because I broke my leash when I ran off yesterday and got it tangled around a bush I don’t get to go for a walk? You don’t need a leash, person. I can take you for a walk without a leash.

Why didn’t you get me a new leash then? My younger person got all those big metal things and little metal things today. You could have at least gotten me a leash too.

They don’t sell leashes at the metal thingy store? I thought they had stores that sold everything.

Well, tomorrow you’d better go to the leash store person, because if you don’t bring home a leash that works I’m definitely not taking you for a walk.

Where’s Yoda

15 Jun

My person and I went out walking in the morning again, but the sun wasn’t as high in the sky as yesterday and it wasn’t so hot. Speaking of sky, my person is still hanging out with all those kids in the sky every night, and she still won’t take me.

Oh, I forgot – I’m supposed to be talking about my walk on the trails.

We were walking along and a lady came jogging toward us. She gave me a little love and said, “Yoda’s back there.”

I was really confused because I always thought Yoda lived in a galaxy far, far away – so I didn’t know what I was going to see. Maybe Yoda has been reading my blog and likes it so much he came all the way here to hang out on my trails with me.

We walked a little further and there he was. But he wasn’t the Yoda from that faraway galaxy. He was a little brown dog, and he was afraid of me. He stood at the top of the rise he’d just come over and wouldn’t come any closer.

I finally got tired of the stand-off and headed toward him, and he ran past me so fast that I barely got a whiff as he made his way down the trail.

Yoda really is in the picture my person put on this post, but you have to look really hard to find him. I think he might be related to Waldo.

Mornings are Hot

14 Jun

My person took me out on my trails in the morning again because she’s still hanging out at night with all those kids in the sky that I’m not allowed to hang out with.

I’m not sure I like mornings. It’s too hot. And I tried to give some pesky blue jays what for as they flew by, but the sun was on the wrong side of the sky and I had to look away.

We went on my usual trails and got back to my house and I was ready to go back inside where it was nice and cool.

But my person had other ideas. Sometimes I think she is really crazy. She made me keep walking down the street with her. Come on person, I just want to go inside. Can’t you see I’m hot? Aren’t you hot?

My person took me down the street, and then we went on another street, and another.

And then she got her camera out. Oh no, not this again.

Hey person, do these two century plants only come out in the morning? Maybe they need extra heat to grow double.

I think I’ll go back to looking for the single century plants on my trails that come out later in the day. At least then I won’t collapse in the heat.

Can we go home now?

They Came out of Hiding

07 Jun

My younger person came with us on my trails today. My person wanted to show him the elusive century plant.

I’m not sure how she’s going to do that. I haven’t found that century plant anywhere. I’m starting to wonder if it even exists. Maybe my person is making it up. She does make things up sometimes.

I think she just told my younger person there was a century plant on my trails so he would come out with us. Usually he doesn’t want to come.

I guess by the time he figures out that there isn’t a century plant on my trails it’ll be too late. He’ll already have had his walk.

Come on younger person, let’s go. There’s sure to be a century plant out there somewhere.

Hey, wait a minute. This wasn’t here yesterday.
