TEN THINGS I LEARNED AT THE BAR

HI, friends this is Stella Rose Long, blogging to you from my home town, in my own livingroom, in my own chair...........ahhahahahahh............home sweet home.  Now I can PEE.

I learned a lot more than 10 fings, but I need a nap and so I am making the list small today.

1. Jester my little buddy friend who went wif me, is a better traveler than me.  By the end of the trip mom and Ms. Mary Ann called him the bestest traveler in the world; they called me "Little Satan".

2.  Hotels that are beside Kentucky Fried Chicken are the BESTEST.  The only way mom could get me to drink any water is if she would mix in a chicken breast from the white bearded guy himself.....yummy. I am one SMART girl.  I did not need to eat my kibble one time on this trip....bhahahahah.

 3.  If you pant hard enough and act like you are going to die, your mom will rush you back to the air conditioned hotel room so you can stretch out and sleep.  I swear I heard Jester whisper to me "good job Stella Rose".

 Are you getting me more chicken mom?
4.  That good friends don't care if you have wet towels on your head when they take a picture wif you.  That's Casey and me. and mom........geeze, she must have thought I needed a chaperon. 


(These pictures were not taken by my momma.)

5.  That Mary Ann is part cat.  Sometimes Mom had to peel her off the ceiling of the van when we were driving through the beautiful hills and valleys.  Mom started calling her +5.


6.  Also if mom goes around the curve to fast in Brown County State Park that Ms. Mary Ann yips just has high as I do when I am  the back seat................

7.  I also learned if I planted my feet and refused to move mom would carry me like a sack of potatoes all over the place.  Being carried by your mom is nice. 

8.  That air conditioned cars are worth 900 million dollars when it is 851 degrees outside.  I loved Ms. Mary Ann's van.
9.  That rest stops are for RESTING, not peeing and pooping.  If I was supposed to pee and poop there they should have been called Pee and Poop stops.

10.  That I am the luckiest little pug alive to get to meet up with some of my blogging buddies.  It was one of my bestest weekends I will ever have.  I know I will have wonderful dreams of you all at night, of us enjoying being around each other, and your parents.  Did each of you feel the hug I gave you as we were walking away, I squeezed real tight and I whispered one special word to each of you, to put away close to your heart until we meet again.  Yours Always
Stella Rose Long

  9. Oh Stella, how we enjoyed and chuckled at your list - a girl has to be picky about where she pees and poops, right? We think #10 was your best item ever!!!

  13. Oh gurl!!! I was right theres with you IN SPIRIT!!! I wish i could have been there in the furs, butts I gots to say, I would have been right next to you in the AC hotel room!! BOL! I REALLY don't likes the heat, AND I don't likes gettin' my furs wet, so the AC is the only thingie that can cool me off. I made notes abouts your travel tips, butts Ma never takes me anywheres, so I thinks they'll have to go in the 'wish vault' ....
    Glads you had a FABulous time, and you had a safe trip!
    Kisses,

  17. BOL, you did a great job chronicling your journey. You really had your mom by the leash. Chicken in your water. That is yummy. And you are right: Rest stops are for resting. Very happy that you are home safe

  22. I think your wet towel was a smart AND stylish choice! I'm so glad we got to get our pictures taken together.

    OMD, you got to stop at REST stops? We didn't do any of that. We did enough resting in the car. Momma would say "it's time for a potty break" when we stopped, so I guess we were stopping at different places!

  23. We sure wish we could have been at the BAR to meet you too. It sounds like you sure had a good time and had your momma jumping through hoops for you.

  24. We're so glad you had such a great time! Wish we would have been able to go too.

  25. Sounds like a good trip, sorry it was 851 degrees there! You are so lucky your mom lets you have KFC; we're banned due to the resulting toxic gas :)

  26. Oh I have heard how bad the heat was at the BAR!
    Fry an egg on the hood of your car hot. No sauna needed!
    Yam Aunty told us all about it. She left us Wednesday at noon having arrived early morning on Monday. I showed her a gazillion things in my city and treated her to three wonderful Nati City restaurants. I only took one picture at our tea party but she took dozens and dozens. So I am letting her when she gets back to Scotland show everything we did and saw ~ none stop we were. We even got the dome of the Observatory to open special and a chef to prepare a special meal. Our weather was fabulous! Wish you could have popped over.
    Thanks for being a friend
