Very Wet Weekend

This whole summer is just too wet to do anything up in the cabin. Once again, last weekend, going up there is just raining nonstop. The sky was so beautiful, so orange. I think this was part from Hurricane Bill. Needless to say, mosquitos were everywhere.

Good news is that we are getting a puppy, a Boston Terrier. We are flying out to Seattle to pick him up (we will also spent 2 days before picking up the puppy to try good food in Seattle). So far, we bought a dog carryon, 3 toys, bed and dog treats.

Then we decided to read about house training the dog. It just made our heads spin. There are a lot of works involved. No joke. No one in this household had a dog ever. I read thru many dog training books (I don't think I was this diligent in school) but still a little confused about house breaking by using crate because this dog is already crate train (18 weeks by the time we pick him up). Need to keep reading. Also, I will try the dog training classes. This is beyond my imagination to even think of signing up a class for a dog. But, I am not interested in picking up $%%^& in this apartment.

By the way, the puppy's name is Tres. I also bought a dog id tag.
