von did amazing, and i seriously mean AMAZING, in the car. that made for a very happy mom & dad. upon arrival, von made himself right at home and treated melissa like his new best friend. most of the time, it takes him a bit to warm up to people, but not with melissa. he was crawling on her, holding her hand, kissing her, sitting on her lap, wanting her to pick him up (and so on). then phil came home from work .. and back into bashful mode went von. however, once again, he surprised us tremendously and started playing with phil.
and now for dylan & nomar (the furfaces). intrigued would be a good way to describe von at first with the cats. however, intrigue quickly turned into obsession. von couldnt stand not being in the same room as the cats. which led to a lot of running around and around the house. it was cute though, so none of us minded. after a long day of travel and excitement, we put von to bed and then enjoyed a night of pizza, micro brews, and reminiscing. fun fun!
friday was cold and windy, but we still managed to bundle up and walk over to feed the donkeys. von did his normal 'i think i like them but just dont get me too close' thing while we fed them an entire bag of carrots. some fireside sitting followed when we returned to the house and then a delicious (seriously delicious) lunch.
we plopped a very tired von into the car (he was out cold within 60 seconds) and headed south for the next portion of our journey.
thank you pantanos ... good times with GREAT friends!
