Milo's many travels (the New England tour)

I wanted to send a brief note.  We have been traveling since Wednesday.  We drove to Vermont to see Gogol Bordello, a punk rock group, in concert.  It’s a long story.  Today we left for Maine and I am writing this email from a hotel in Bath, Maine.  Milo is sleeping on the bed. 

On the way from Vermont to Maine we stopped at the Dog Chapel.  I had heard about this place and had even bought t-shirts with reproductions on them from the artist who created the Dog Chapel.  It was a fun place to visit.  People come there and post pictures and letters about their departed pets.  This is the first church I have ever visited that welcomed dogs.  The gift shop has lots of cool stuff and Milo now sport a very trendy bandana, with the artist work “Bad dog” on one side and “Good dog” on the other. 

Tomorrow we visit Bowdoin College Art Museum to see William Wegman’s show.   One of us will be outside with Milo, who will be outside signing autographs.  Then on to the Bar Harbor area where we rented a house for the week. 

In the last month,  Milo has  become ball crazy.  All he want is for us to throw him the ball, over and over again.  He can go on for hours.  Certainly longer than we can.  When we want him to stop we tell him the ball is tired and that is his signal to stop playing.  He is a funny guy and a great travel companion.
