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.

I've been taking Zelda out on walks. When we get back home, she looks at me as if she was asking "ARE WE DONE?? WHYYYYY???" Haha...

@Camuhkazi Yeah mine does the same when I tell him to go back and sometimes he doesn't even get inside the house but just runs away ignoring me.

Nice pics!
@VivisFitbit Yes, by all means, if you can pull it off, get a dog. It doesn't take long and your "pet" becomes a bona fide member of the family.

Great quote @rightdx! I'm pretty sure that my dog and cat are thinking that.
