Old and New Travel Companions

August 18th was a mixed day.  My son Christopher turned 34, my daughter Dawn turned 43 which makes me very old.  The sad news however was the loss of Duncan our beloved travel companion.  He was 16 years old and as requested made it back to Pennsylvania to see the family.  He enjoyed traveling and visiting old and new friends.  We will miss him.

Duncan loved Megan

 We had planned to hit the road and head to Delaware but Irene moved in and we decided to stay put.  Turned out to be a good move since Delaware asked all visitors to leave the state during the storm.  The area of Pennsylvania we were in got a lot of rain but no serious damage.

While waiting out the storm we visited the local SPCA.

  We were adopted by two girls.  Shadow, all black, is about a year old.  Mistoffelees, (formerly Bootsy but it just didn't fit), the tuxedo is between 5 & 6.  They lived together and the shelter was hoping they would stay together and we agreed.  We are all getting used to each other but it is good to have furry friends on board.
