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.
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.
Please share photos of your fitbitting friends here!

Great idea @Baltoscott! One of my favorite threads for sure, certainly a refresher was needed. Thank you.
I'm not sure if I had shared it previously, but here it goes:
This is little Baby Boo when she was around 4 years old. She's now 13, I will post a recent picture of her soon as well! 😁 🐕

Good looking pup @JoBo16
He’s sayin’ just unhook me and I’ll run like the wind.
Babyboo is looking pretty focused @DavideFitbit
Jayhawk turned 10 this week. Took him and Cali over to visit his brother and sister (Banjo and Mattie) who about six month younger.

She is holding treats. Give me a treat.
We go to this brewery all the time. I take dog biscuits to the resident bar dog. I forgot today. I hung my head in shame even. She did not for give me. She keep sniffing my purse and looking at me with sad puppy dog eyes. I failed her 😩

Oh nice. That looks like a Seattle rain forest @Frisko, I can see why you'd want to disappear in there.
[edit -- Whoops. I see I just replied to a post that is over a year old. Guess will see if Frisko is still on fitbit 🙂 ]

Oh yes, @JoBo16 -- Jayhawk is definitely my best friend (at least dog friend!).
Your story about the roast reminds me of a dog I met a few years ago. His parents renewed their vows in their backyard which was to be followed with an outdoor reception complete with pit beef on the grill. About 50 people were present, including the couple's three young children. The pit master was carving up one of the roasts during the ceremony and got distracted by the wedding vows, The dog took advantage and swiped the roast; one of of the human kids noticed right away and screamed out right as the vows completed, and soon there was great merry chase -- the dog with a mouth full of meat as big as his head, and three young kids yelling and running in pursuant (along with half the wedding party) as he romped around the back yard trying to make his escape.
I didn't not witness this event, but the couple told me that there was more than one roast, so no one went hungry. 😂

Haha yes @Baltoscott Babyboo must have been focused on the ice cream in my hand. That look 😱
Jayhawk looks great in that picture by the way, a little star. 😎
@JoBo16, Boy looks so relaxed lying there, just enjoying the sun! My dog loves lying on her bed under the sun too, she just just falls into a deep sleep and won't wake up unless I make a lot of noise 😂
