Miss Ruby and her snake / Kisses from Rubes Ruby's latest game: In the middle of the night, she ventures out from the warmth of the bed and locates her favorite toy–'Blue', the three-foot-long stuffed snake, dragging it back into the bed with her (with us I should say).

I'm back! What a journey (!), and it's really just begining… The huge suitcases (2) met the wieght limit (70 lbs each) by just a hair–after I removed a few things at the counter into an impromptu carry-on. Ruby was boxed and loaded, tagged and transfered, customs checked, off-loaded and re-loaded, lugged and finally, let…

No sooner did I finish the big blanket than Miss Ruby thought it was for her!

with the boat out in the harbor, Bert's been crashing here. On the balcony to be exact. Ruby loves it. She also digs the long 7am walks. Now she's gonna be all spoiled.
