Hey, Mates.....Duncan here....the Scottie on Cedar Key.  Mom said I could do the blog entry for today and I wanted to tell you about the outing that Brie and I had yesterday.  Here we are in the car on our way to the big city of Gainesville.  (Well....living on an island, it's big to me.)

Mom says we're very well-behaved riding in the car.  Well, of course we are.  I learned from the BEST.....Holly.  And then I passed it on and taught Brie.  No rough-housing in the car.  Nope.  We have to sit or lay down and be good doggies.  And we are.  We weren't sure where mom and dad were taking us, but we were really excited to find out.......it was Pet Smart!  Wow!  They're SO civilized there.  They actually allow us pooches to go inside, browse the aisles and socialize.  We met a really nice Beagle, a black Lab and a small Yorkie.....and we did what all dogs do.  We kissed and sniffed each other.  Brie and I had a great time checking out all the toys there!

And then.....we got to go to Chiefland.  Mom and Dad bought lunch and ate it in a nice park.  We got to walk around the park and they even gave us a few potato chips.  It was a gorgeous day!  Sunny, in the 70's and no humidity.  My kind of doggie day.

And then....when we got home, Mom showed us what she bought for us at Pet Smart.  We each got a new toy and a new sweater to wear this winter when it gets chilly here on the island.  Shhhh!  Don't tell Mom.....but I'm sure hoping the other fellows on the island won't be snickering at me when I wear that blue sweater.

So it was a fun day and Brie and I sure did enjoy it.  Mom said to tell all of you to have a great weekend and she'll see you here next time..........
