demolition derby / back on the road

Yesterday we went to Caryn and Joe's shop around noon and they worked on the website. Everyone, but me, is working hard on getting it up and running, I just stand around because there is nothing I can do. Next time I'll just stay at the coach and keep the dog company maybe that way she won't have accidents when we are gone so long. Yep, you heard me right, accidents. Before we left Bakersfield she was put back on prednisone and with that drug she drinks a lot and pees a lot. Needless to say, which I forgot to mention the other day, when we left her on Friday night for the truck pull she had an accident, I had forgotten to put her diaper on when we left. Well, last night we left at 5pm and didn't get home until 1am which was way too long for her even with a diaper on. It wasn't as bad as Friday, because of the diaper, but the diaper can only hold so much. Luckily she drinks so much water that her pee doesn't have the strong smell, but when we get to a place where we will be staying at again for a few days we will be cleaning the carpet. The towel and her bed cover are in the wash right now getting cleaned up, if she should keep this up her days are numbered though. She is off the prednisone now so hopefully things will get better, but we do have to remember she is going to be 12 yrs old soon, that's pretty old for a big dog.
The demolition derby was a lot of fun, did a lot of yelling and cheering. The ugly truck competition was fun, they ended up have 8 entries and Joe and Caryn came in second, Caryn rode on top of the truck which was pretty funny to see.
This morning Caryn is fixing breakfast for us around 10am then we will get back on the road again for Tahoe. Tomorrow we will be headed for Redding, following the hot heat, Bishop has been really hot but watching the weather Redding is even hotter, I think we are doing something wrong here.

Kim and Danny love the new pictures you posted on your website. Miss Madison is growing so fast. Mike or Spanky please show them to Trini. Mike, haven't heard back from Shawn yet but since they are on vacation probably won't hear from him until they get back.
Love you all
