2022 Visiting in Crew and Sunny
My humans
let me walk some, but it is hot. I must
rest.
My walk took
me on a loop on the roads around Crew’s house.
It is very rural. Although it is
dry and yellow like most of California, it is a beautiful walk among homes on
large properties. There are rolling
hills and pretty views. The loop is
about 1 ½ miles so I walked it back and forth.
It is amazing what you see walking in the opposite direction. In all that time, only one car passed me.
California
is having a heat wave, and it is about 105 here. So far, our air conditioner is holding on as
long as we have the fridge using gas instead of electricity. Since Crew and Sunny have no dining room
table yet, we have been playing Skipbo in Hannah so we NEED that air
conditioner!
We went with
Crew to the grocery store in Ione. Turn
left here for a few miles of rolling hills, then turn right for some more, then
left, then right and finally, about 20 minutes later, we are in the tiny town. Needless to say, this is not a trip you make
often!
Sunny is
Hmong. The Hmong people are essentially people without a country. They are mountain people of southeast Asia,
most closely related to Vietnam or maybe Thailand. She is first generation American, but she has
been raised with a lot of the Hmong culture.
She speaks fluent Hmong but is definitely a cute American girl!
She prepared
a batch of pho that was delicious. Mmmmm…. She is definitely a keeper!
