Susa and Chena’s Morning Walk

Posted on May 7, 2010 by Katya Posted in pets and travel | Leave a comment

Susa has been doing really well on the leash. I had put the harness on her a couple times in the house before finally jumping into the leash on her first visit to the vet. She was really good besides destroying my shirt at the sight of people, cars and especially a weed whacker. She sat in the waiting room and watched the other animals go by, not even flinching when a huge hyper dog went by. We don’t have … →

May in NOLA

Posted on May 6, 2010 by Katya Posted in RV life | 1 Comment

New Orleans jumped right into summer. It seems like only a couple of weeks ago that we were using a wool blanket and keeping Chena close at night. Now almost without warning it’s over 80 every day, often with 80% humidity or worse. Today is nice though, bearable and the air isn’t as thick as it has been.

This weekend we finally decided to commit to riding our bikes and went to the great and awesome … →

Beware. by the end of this you”ll know more than you need to about our new cat. Once we got a bigger place to hang out, we were finally able to have a cat in our lives again. I think we had the new trailer for a day when I started looking on craigslist for needy cats and within a week, on a routine dog food stop at Pet Smart, we walked in just as they were closing the adoption … →

Picking up the trailer, Cajun style

Posted on March 24, 2010 by Katya Posted in RV life | 1 Comment

So we spent the entire day picking up the trailer and had a pretty great time on the way. We hired a guy off Craigslist who had a 3/4 ton truck and experience, pretty much all we needed. His name was Joey and he picked us up around 10am with his brother and wife; all friendly, no room for awkwardness allowed. Almost as soon as we left, getting on the freeway a woman was blocking a lane of traffic with … →
