Hey There Everyone,
Yes, You guessed it its your canine friend Sir-"Fudge"-A-Lot from Spirit Point Wilderness Academy & Camp. There I spelled out all the words and called Spirit Point by its rightful name, that should be good for a special thanks, a hug for sure and maybe even a treat.
I don't have much to say this time, and well, to be honest, actually, I'm pretty busy with the return of the nice weather and lots of swimming to fit in before the lake freezes up for winter.
But busy or not, I could NOT miss the opportunity to remind everyone that it is finally SEPTEMBER and I am very excited because this is the month that the children return to Spirit Point.
On the weekend, we had a small group in and it was sooooo good to hear the constant sound of laughter echoing again. Not to mention of cause all the extra attention, the games and the tit-bits that came my way. Maya & Paddles were here with Jen as well but I don't mind sharing, they have become my best friends. Maya has certainly learned all the camp tricks but even Paddles is learning the tricks of the trade now that she is no longer a baby.. Maya and I try to show her all we can.
Mike tells me that humans believe that we canines are colour blind and I guess we do see things differently than they but we were talking the other day those two girls and I and our main topic was what an attractive bunch we make. There's me A Chocolate Lab with my brown shinny coat and what Mike calls a big melon, by the way that's my head. There's Maya who is actually a mixed breed but she looks just like a Husky to me. She is very pretty "I think" and then there is the little red coated Paddles or orrange as Mike calls it. I don't know what colour humans see us but I think we look absolutely stunning together.
We have a new guest for six weeks. His name is Ollie and he comes all the way from England. Ollie represents World Challenge but he is staying with us in the Lodge so he is right here when the CHILDREN come. He too likes children, I can tell by the way he smiles and talks to them.
Speaking of talking, Ollie sounds very different than my Mike, Mike tells me it is because he has an English accent and he sounds to me a little bit like Mikes mom.
Today I met the new cleaning ladies from Trout Creek, they seemed nice and paid me a little attention but they did not carry treats like the children do nor did they seem to have time to throw sticks for me. Oh well, maybe things will change when they know me better.
Jen helped my Mike put up another new sign today right at the end of our road which Mike calls Tyne Lake Road. Of cause it is another piece of his personal artwork like all the other signs he has made. I wasn't supposed to be out on the road but my excuse today was that I wanted to see what the sign would look like. When they were done, and satisfied that it was level, I stood back with them admiring it and after he thanked Jen for her help, I heard Mike say "see even "Fudge" is impressed" and not a word was said about me being out on the road (Tee-he).
Well, I should go, Mike tells me there are going to be children here tomorrow and I need to turn in and get well rested ready for the Meet & Greet after all,first impressions are important RIGHT!!!
So I'm going to sign off now, spend some quality time with my Mike then I'll rest until morning, have a quick early swim and be shiny clean to meet my new friends.
Lots of Hugs & Slurpy Kisses
from
Your Canine Friend
