Sorry for the long quiet stretch.  The past month has been filled with many “firsts” for Linen.

• Our first solo trip to Starbucks and walking with a to-go drink down Main Street.  Hand gestures and treats were a bit problematic, but Linen rolled with it.
• First haircut appointment.  He was a trooper once he figured out I was safe in the chair and that Audra wasn’t going to hurt me with the scissors.
• First rides with Sheila, Dick, Ronnelle, Robert, Michael, Wendy, Bob, Bonnie, and aunt Juli’s cars.  (Thank you everyone for the safe and dry rides.)
• First doggie lunch date with Mensa and Joleen.
• First off-leash play date in our backyard with Bowie, Mike, and Robert
