It was 100 degrees on the ground, about 65 at 6000 feet. Dakota did fine
in the air, got carsick in his new mom's new car. Click

- Sammy flew home to Bloomington, MN on the same flight with Dakota. Guy
stayed with the aircraft and Lisa brought Sammy from the airport to her
hotel to meet Denise, Sammy's new mom. Imagine Denise's surprise at the
3rd WSR reunion in June, 2000, when a strange man called out to her dog,
"Hey Sammy!" Pilot and passenger, together again... |

- Lucky flies home to St Paul, MN - DPA to 8D1 to LVN (DuPage, IL to New
Holstein to Lakeville): Bandit and Dakota spend the weekend at Lisa's
while Guy and Julie have a weekend getaway in Chicago. We pick up Lucky,
Bandit and Dakota for the flight home from 8D1 to LVN. Lucky is, by far,
the most enthusiastic member of the back seat! According to Lucky's new
parents, they never leave the East Side, so Lucky is the traveler in the
family. We hope that changes next spring when Lucky's mom and dad attend
the 2001 WSR reunion.

From
Webmistress #2: This trip was really neat-o because we also visited the
Martinez family (Joyce, Julio, Tiffy and Koda), Warrenville, IL. They
showed us once again what friendship and hospital-ity is all about!
More story fodder for the bonfire at reunion #4...stay
tuned :-)

8/31/01 - Bash flies from Lakeville, MN to New Holstein, WI. 12-yr old Bash (short for Sebastian) was an owner surrender at the Woodbury, MN HSCA. His flight was grounded for a week due to weather and pilot obligations. He spent the week with Bandit and Dakota in Rosemount, MN, before flying to "Auntie Lisa" and continuing the next leg of his journey to find his forever home. He slept most of the way. | |||||||||||||||||||||
