Mom and DOD decided to leave the desert and head home to Saturna....they are at the stage where I just can't let them make the trip alone...
Our desert adventure will have to wait until I can get back to Arizona.
So I got home to Saturna Island yesterday after a grueling 5 days in the car with Mom, DOD and Lacey. From now on I am traveling by magic it is so much faster and easier! The selection of music they have on their ipod makes my teeth clench...and they only talk of boring stuff. We get a couple of walks a day and then have to sleep in strange hotels....no barking...no critters...truly a dog's life!

Anyway, I spent the day today checking out the old Hood and of course visiting old friends. I took Lacey with me even though I wanted to be alone...it is so hard to leave a sister behind when she is whining and howling.
Our first stop was of course the Salamander pond and I was happy to see it full to the top of the banks. I called nogarD and he came splashing and snorting right out of the water to say hello! Boy was he glad to see me!
He and I hugged....Lacey kept her distance especially after she saw him roll me in the mud at the edge of the pond a couple of times. I asked him what was new ....And guess what? He told me he had a WIFE! Yes! nogarD has a dragon lady in his pond home.

Wow! I asked if we could see her ....he said she was quite shy but he would call her and see if she would meet us.
We waited. And waited,
Finally ..................
We waited. And waited,
Finally ..................
nogarD said 'here she is...Robbie, Lacey, meet Tanith-Adalinda, my wife'. 'I call her Tatha for short and you can call her that too'.
Wow! Such a pretty Dragon lady.
She smiled at me in a shy way but didn't come close...but when she saw Lacey she took to her right away...you know the girl-to-girl-thing.. and came up to the very edge of the pond to whisper and chat with her.
Meanwhile, I asked nogarD what the heck had happened between when we last saw him at the La Femme/nogarD wedding fiasco and marrying Tatha? He nodded and said it was a long story and that he wanted to share it with Margaret and Tansy and good old Hurley... and new gang members, Blue and Inka.
I think dragons seem very prone to marrying!I mean none of us have got married but nogarD has been almost married and now really married in less than a year!
I got on my BlackBerry and texted the Gang ...they said they would be right over....
Inka and Blue are so glad you are home--they can't wait to meet Nogard and Tatha.
ReplyDeleteInka is a little miffed about losing her flashing collar for nothing--so I promised her a new one. You know how the ladies love their bling!
And Blue's family is buying him a ramp so he doesn't have to jump into the back of the van--he makes it about half the time,but this will help. He does love to "come with"--but he's a little hard to lift. Unlike you, Robbie!!!!
Dear Lynne, Inka's collar is not lost..we have just delayed our adventure with her collar.
DeleteAnd I truly understand Blue's issues...I too am a mature dog and Mom has to lift me into our car.
Yes, Mom can lift me....
Hugs
Robbie
Tansy is so excited for nogarD and Tatha she says Tatha sounds like a girl,s girl whatever that is but I think itis something that sisters do,share secrets and giggles, she is already on herway over to the Salamander pond, didn't wait for me because I'm too slow.!! Anyway she is right on this one I have a most irksome bug;gastroenteritis, not to be discussed.So we are going for some more magic I like that especially magic menus and travel plans,always first class>!!! Lovely and comforting to have you all safely back.!
ReplyDeleteI too have had that gastroenteritis thing and Lacey has it now. I pooped all over the house and sincerely hope that you are not doing the same!
DeleteIt is lovely to be back here in the green cool spring.
Love and hugs
Robbie
