I’m just getting caught up – I had no idea. that was not one of the adventures you’ve been anticipating. Happy to hear all is well with the family and the boat.

I’m glad you are able to have the propeller fixed before you ran into a big problem! I feel like with you and Mike to help her, there’s nothing Honey can’t do.

In reply to Pamela.

Honestly, it really depends on how the person approaches her. It’s all about the person. If they approach her in a neutral manner and are quiet and gentle in their movements then she’s fine. If they bend over and are frantic and flailing about at her, she won’t let them near her. She also doesn’t like it when people reach for her. If you’re neutral, she’s neutral. Also, she remembered my friend (who was with me when I adopted her and saw her daily for 6 months before we moved away and lived in California for a 1.5 years) and she let him pet her, too.

She does not like my FIL because he does everything wrong and won’t listen to me on how to approach her. She’s gotten used to him but still won’t let him pet her. She prefers to run around him in a circle and bark. That is actually pretty funny.

In reply to Pamela. You are probably correct. Sometimes I wish she could tell me about her life before she came to live with me.

In reply to Callie, Shadow, and Ducky's Mom. Actually, we're too stupid to be scared. :)

In reply to Lauren Miller (ZoePhee). Are there any similarities in the strangers Phoenix deems worthy?

In reply to Emma. And even more dogs are scared to walk over grates. I was surprised she ever did it. Maybe she surprised herself? :)

In reply to Leah.

I was very surprised at Honey’s climb. She would not have done this a few years ago. She has really gained confidence.

I wonder if you’ll find Zoe and Zach doing things after the growth experiences of their trip.

And yes, being up high in the boat is interesting. If only I weren’t scared of heights. 🙂

In reply to Jan K.

That’s great that you have a way to keep Sheba quiet during her recovery. I guess she just saw the benefit to having her own room. 🙂

Good luck working on it with Luke. Honey was crate trained from a puppy. But it didn’t translate to me training her to sit in the bike cart. It can be difficult.

Hopefully Luke will enjoy a new training game.

And yes, we can stay in the boat up on stands. It’s cheaper than staying at a motel and I can still cook in my own galley.

Personally, I hate it. 1) I’m scared of heights. and 2) the boat doesn’t move. 🙂
