Hey There Everyone,
Its me again, your friend Sir "Fudge" A-Lot from Spirit Point Wilderness Academy & Camp. Did you notice today how I remembered to call Spirit Point by its whole name? Well, Mike has been helping me practice. He is telling me that I often shorten it to just Spirit Point and leave of the Wilderness Academy & Camp and I know he is right but sometimes, I really don't understand humans because the way I see it; My full name is Sir Fudge A Lot but everyone including Mike just calls me Fudge so really what is the difference. Oh well, I try to please, so this time I did it right and I'm not dumb, because I know that when Mike see's what I have done I will get an extra hug or even a treat for being what Mike calls being "A Good Boy"
I guess you are all wondering what is new at Spirit Point and I cant wait to tell you because its been a very exciting week.
We had company on the weekend, Tanya & John came to stay and they brought their three children called Mackenzie who is 11, Jacob who is 8 and Ally who is 7. Jen from Chocpaw was here with Mya & Paddle and did we all have fun, it was like a party. The children especially Ally spent a lot of time with us canines and we got lots of hugs. Ally thought I was pretty cool because I catch horse fly's in mouth and she said that she really likes my my stories on the blog. Her Mom Tanya owns fxwebdesign.ca and Mike tells me that she built the web site for Spirit Point which is the reason that I have this blog and I love to write the stories so cudo's to Tanya.
Anyway everyone had a great time and the children loved the rope swing and swimming. They also leaned how to play pool in the Rec Hall, their Dad John taught them and they played for a very long time. I was patient until they were finished and then it was back out to play again. Poor Jacob had his first introduction to Deer Fly's and he was bitten. He was pretty scared at first but handled it like a little trouper and I tried to catch lots that day so he wouldn't get bitten again. Mackenzie is a Great little swimmer and she spent lots of time jumping off the end of the dock. Later they all played a fun game that they called Talent Night and there was lots of laughter. Tanya cooked a Great meal and she said that she really liked our kitchen. My Mike took all the kids for a ride in his Kabota which they thought was swell. That's my Mike, always doing his best to help people enjoy themselves and leave with good memories. It was sure fun to have Tanya, John and their family,I was sad to see them go especially Ally who gave both myself, Mya & Paddle lots of hugs and attention, I hope they all come back again soon.
Mya, Paddle & I ammussed ourselves for the rest of the day after they left because Mike & Larry were both busy doing that maintenance thing and Jen was busy getting organised for the canoe trip that she was doing with another bunch of children. When the canoe trip was over, everyone came back to Spirit Point for a big meal and this time we had Paul & Marg form Chocpaw, plus Martin & Kathy, The Children & Jen. Mike was in the kitchen with them whilst us canines stayed outside but we didn't mind because we had plenty of canine things to do.
Everyone has gone now and things are quiet again except for the noise of the little excavator that Larry and Mike are working on to dig trenches. Honestly, those guys never stop especially my Mike who tells me all the time that we have to make use of the summer months in order to be ready for our open house in late August and the fall programs starting in September when The Children start coming back to Spirit Point. Yippee !!!!!
Well Guys, Girls, Moms, Dads & Grandparents, enough people work for me today, its time for me to get back to being a canine and go looking for puddles to roll in.
Talk to you all soon.
Hugs, Woofs & Slurpy Kisses
