Fitbitting with "Man's Best Friend" (upload dog photos here)

ANSWERED

 

We live in "Steinbeck country" (Salinas Valley/Monterey County), named after the famous author John Steinbeck. And just as Steinbeck documented his journeys with his beloved dog in "Travels with Charlie", I'm going to photojournal in this thread my "Travels with Melody".

 

A lot has changed in Salinas since the days of Steinbeck. But some things haven't changed that much. Today we visited the childhood home of Steinbeck, which has been restored to its original beauty.

Down the street from the Steinbeck House is the Steinbeck Public Library, with a bronze statue of the author at the front entrance. I don't think Melody's ever seen a statue before. At first she was puzzled that he didn't greet her - or even flinch one little bit.DSC_0047 resize.jpg

 

Then she surprised me and became downright ornery!

So I took her back to to dog training school for some proper obedience training. Of course, she passed with flying colors.

Melody and I have been coming across quite a few snakes while fitbitting this year (4 gopher snakes and 1 king snake).

 

The first one we saw, Melody was very curious about...

 

No Melody no! Those guys can hurt you.

The second one we saw was about 4 1/2 feet long.

The kid in me couldn't control himself....

Ouch - don't try this at home! I guess I'm not an expert snake handler after all. With my hand bleeding, the snake thashing and Melody barking, it was a challenge taking this photo , left handed, lol.

 

After a couple of bandaids, I was good as new.

 

 

This one I was able to charm into posing for me:
