Well I guess they don’t get many cool dogs like basset hounds at Myrtle Beach. Darla and I had a fan club. People stopped everyday for us. They petted us and played with us. They dropped treats off. It was insane. Several times a day we went to the beach and we were mobbed just about every time. The people loved us and loved the picture on the back of the basset bus.

A lot of driving. We spent the night somewhere a Cracker Barrel. Made it to Myrtle Beach. WOW …… THE OCEAN AND THE BEACH ARE AMAZING! I love the beach….. Darla loves the beach…. it is AWESOME!

There are giant limestone caves in Luray VA. It has the great stalacipipe organ. The organ uses rubber mallets to hit stalagmites and stalactites to make the sound. It sounds like a xylophone. The cave is pretty impressive. An 1880 Smithsonian report concluded there is probably no other cave in the world with so many stalagacites and stalagmites. Dream Lake — a reflection pool.

There was lots of room between the couches. When we are getting ready to leave we go for a walk and we come back the bus is narrow again.…

One day I was just a dog living in a house. I went to school a couple of times a week. I was the director of a basset hound choir. I would hang out with friends every so often. The neighbor girls would take me for walks every so often. You get the picture — a dog’s life. On Oct 24, 2021, I turned 4. Darla, Willow and Raina threw me a surprise birthday party. It was nice. The men (Howard & Henry 2 basset hounds who live in Leray. Funny how many basset hounds I know.) sent their regards. The very next day we left in the basset bus…
