After a bit of a later start than I had hoped, we made our roadtrip up to Tom and Wesley's haven in the woods. What a lovely place they have made.

The drive up was uneventful. We made a couple pit stops on the way. Wyatt was his usual trying to pilot self. On the long gravel road up to Tom's, I was driving and noticed something off to the side of the road ahead. As I am saying, "What is that, oh a bear!" the bear head disappeared as if he had read my lips. We were getting ready to pull over but I decided to drive a couple more miles down the road - just to be safe.

So there we are in the middle of nowhere, when I hear a car. I call the pups to me and grab collars. I look at the vehicle and it dawns on me - OMG it is Tom!! We then have a guide to make the last part of our journey very simple.

Up north is as close to WA as I can get in the midwest. It was so beautiful, well, except for those darn gnats! Within minutes of getting out of the truck I was the prey of several.Wy and Pix didn't fair much better than myself. T got me situated at the cabin.

A few times the first day Pix would jump in the truck, go to her truck riding spot and sit and stare straight ahead like okay, let's go home now.
