Long road trip

Hi everyone, I took a long road trip with my human and his mate (my silly human calls her his wife, not sure what that is but sounds kind of cool) this past weekend. My human took me down to Homer. I hear there are a lot of my cousins that hang out down there and see a lady named Jean. I got to meet her. WOW, is she nice. I heard the humans talking about how Jean puts out salmon for my cousins when it is cold out. I got to have my picture taken with her, pretty neat to meet someone famous!! I will talk to my human and get him to put the pictures on here so you can all see.

Well, let me tell you about our trip to Homer. It was a long drive and I was kind of nervous because it was snowing and yuky on the drive there. But I didn't worry to much, my human is very careful when we go out and about. When we got there Friday afternoon it was pretty windy and a little rainy. Todd was talking to Dave, another human friend who takes care of my close friend Ghost the snowy owl. They were talking about releasing one of my cousins who had been at the Bird TLC for a while. He was found down there in Homer and not feeling well but the nice people at the TLC helped him get better and go back home.

There were a lot of people who came out to see us and watch my cousin go home. The humans were talking about my first caretaker Leslie and her little girl Morgan and remembering the good times and good things she did. I got to see an old friend who helped Leslie take care of me when I lived with them, Linda Stevens and her mate John. They are sooo nice. All the people were talking about something called a fund raiser for John because he isn't feeling good either. It was neat to see all the people come out to support Leslie, Morgan, Linda and John. Thank you nice humans.

When my cousin left the box that he was in he got picked on by a bunch of darn ravens. Boy, I felt bad for my cousin, just trying to get home and getting messed with. Some birds kids....can't take them anywhere!!!

After my human talked to the people for a little bit and told them about me and how I used to live with Leslie and now live at the TLC, we said bye bye birdie to my cousin and headed back to Anchorage. I like how the humans nest when they travel. We stayed in something called a hotel. Not as nice as a big nest way up in a tree but it did the trick. We had a good trip and I got a nice rat when we got back to the center, mmmm mmmm good. Nothing like a nice juicy rat after a long trip.

I will peck my human to get the pictures up for you to see as soon as he can. Until next time, thanks for checking out my latest adventure.
