Later today (early evening), we'll be packing up the Presto Dog pack, assorted food stuffs, tools and sundry items and heading over to our new residence, affectiobately dubbed "The Phunny Pharm" by my bride.

The three shetland Sheepdogs, Lyric, Lily and Declan seemed to be taking our weekend excursions in stride, and are not too upset about the seven league boots we don to make the trip. Dougie, our tri-color Collie, is not at all enamoured with our choice of residence.

In fact, he's down-right scared of the van and the weaving, bumpy ride that ensues once he steps into same. He's been known to re-visit many meals while in transit, much to the dismay of his fellow travelers.
