Must have just been the cat WW, Mandy didn't bother with the wipers at at, except to try to "catch" them. I have "flowers" all over my passenger windshield from her "touching" dead bugs to stone bruises to trying to catch the windshield wipers!

Here we go getting ready for another road trip...
Mommy is trying to get some of her paperwork do whilst she's on the phone with dispatch.... I'm helping!
YELLOWKNIFE???? I've never been to Yellowknife!
Beautiful fall colours again...but more RAIN!
So I'm back in my spot again
Now we are waiting to get on the ferry at Fort Provedence...they have such a cluster going on as they are trying to build across the river too...
On the ferry...OMG so squished on there...there's barely enough room for 2 trucks & 2 four wheelers!
Hurry up Mommy....
Crossing the river...it's sooo windy the ferry is really having a tough time
The road is so rough I had to find a bigger place, cause I almost fell on the floor a couple of times
FINALLY! We lost the rain....

I just love these pictures. I love cats and I've only had one that loved to travel. His name was Fid. He was constantly messing with everything and everyone in the vehicle. He was right at home. He was a humongus Maine Coon. I had a Blue Heeler named Cash (after THE Legend) and they were buds.

Very cute looking, she doesnt appear to be too old either, great age to introduce to the road. Have fun with her.
Seeing her on the dash reminds me of an incident with our last pug puppy, Dixie. Hubby was crossing the US/Canada border....brought his paperwork into the office & Dixie walked across the arm rest to the dash locking the doors....of course hubby had left his only key in the ignition!
Ya think he learned anything? :lol: :lol:

She's around 4 months or so I think. She locks the doors all the time...keyless entry is a wonderful thing!
My old cat scared the crap out of a customs guy one time...just as I opened the door he walked up to ask if I had anyone in the truck with me she hopped into my lap & "meowed" in his face...he nearly fell off the step! Luckily for me he had a sense of humour!
