Andie's Weekend

Posted at 8:05 PM, Tuesday, May 6, 2008

On Saturday, Max and Sarah left Andie in the apartment while they led an epic Birdathon trip for Portland Audubon. Andie had a few nice visitors who gave her walks and treats, but she was really excited when Max and Sarah returned.

On Sunday, Andie had her revenge for being crated the day before. First, while Max was busy tending the compost bin at Wendy and Jerry's, Andie found the grossest substance she could find to roll all over her right side. This earned her an impromptu shower on the back deck, which was quite refreshing given the warm weather.

Next, Max and Sarah bought a bag of chicken manure to bring to Fred's house for the garden bed they are borrowing. While riding in the back of the car with the bag, Andie bit a large hole in the bag and ate as much as she could. It did not appear to bother her, as it passed without incident.

Finally, While Max and Sarah were gardening, Andie crawled into Fred's raised bed to get some shade from the raspberry bushes. Of course, she probably did not have revenge in mind this time, she only wanted to cool down, but in the process she squished some baby lettuce heads. Fair enough!

After a few foiled attempts, she resigned herself to lay alongside the bed but gave us a heavy glare.

We assured her that she will be able to come along with us on our next Audubon function this weekend, so all is forgiven.
