Day 14 - Posted at the home of my sister in Jackson Tennessee
My battery gave out. I ordered a new one but even though it was labeled for my computer it was not the right one. Now I'm on the road with the little dog and get delivery of a new one so until I find a store that stocks the one I need I'll have be looking for libraries that will let me sign on without a library card - so expect my postings to be intermittent and short. I'm in Jackson TN. The little dog has a new moniker - he is not officially Trail Dog (TD for short). It took us two weeks to get this far - camping out and driving a little every other day. The weather has been misserable - this was the third good day (the first day and other about 5 days ago) - otherwise it has been cold and wet. The trees are starting to leaf. Oh yes, TD - he has taken to the great outadoors - he leads the way - and when he veers off the trail - I holler "Hold up Trail Dog! This a way" and I point. He retraces his path and heads off in the right direction. I am still buildin up my stamena - up to about 4 miles now and still have not worn him out. "Oh what a curte little dog you got there. Aren't you fellow. What kind of dog is it." When I say Yorkie, they laugh. "That's not a Yorkie" I am told. Best I can figure out he is a mix of Shitzsu and Pekinese. The looks of a Shitzsu and the disposition of a Peninese. "No Trail Dog, this way" and I point and off he goes to the length of his leash. For a lap dog he does pretty good in the woods. So am I so far.
