If Joy is in the JOURNEY;  Then Reward is in the destination.

08.12 2021…Scoots almost got away.

The door is always closed or , at least, the screen door is firmly closed, but not so today. As Carla sat by the dinette reading and I was at my desk organizing some photos, little did we know that I had not firmly closed the door to the coach.  Even when we are outside just sitting around there’s no way we could ever tempt Scoots to voluntarily depart the coach on her own. But not today. It was my fault, I was the last one to enter the coach; I just did not close it as firmly as I should have. All of a sudden we both realized things were quiet. No one begging for food, seeking attention or just plain being herself. We also noticed the coach was definitely getting hotter, we assumed the AC’s were having trouble keeping up with the outside heat. It was then that we noticed light coming from the front of the coach. The door was open and no Scoots to be found. We’ve seen something like this happen in the past. A pet that strays is sometime never found since we are only here for short stays and seldom have many options to stay longer. To say the least I was really panicking. Thankfully Carla found her under the coach in the thick grass enjoying the shade of the RV. I pray this never happens again.
