Monza's trip to Northern MN



Hi everyone,
 
Monza and I are back from the rally (car race) in Northern Minnesota!  We had quite the trip & here are some tidbits:
 
1.    Monza Magnet
 
Monza's new name.  GEESH! I certainly didn't mind some of the guys he attracted.  So, that's what it's all about....Alfie!  Why did I wait so long?!
 
2.    Up Periscope
 
The term for when Monza discovered the open sunroof.  Don't even ask for the details!
 
3.    Baggage Handler
 
That's me.  He had twice as much as mine, not even including that huge wire kennel.
 
4.    Air Conditioning Vents
 
What Monza opens his mouth for so he can suck all of the A/C leaving none for me!
 
5.    Foldable Chair
 
What Monza thinks is for him.  The numerous people watching us thought it was too hilarious that he took my chair, the one with padding, every time.  Oh no - he's not spoiled.
 
6.    Beacon
 
What people were calling his flashing, red light on his collar.  He was a beacon for sure!  I didn't mind the guys from Ireland he attracted....at least they knew Monza was Italian and not named after a Chevy!
 
7.    Perrier
 
So, it was hot out....and he had his own cooler.....no, no - really, he's not spoiled.
 
8.    Mosquitoes
 
The 757's of the North weren't too bad.  Monza did very well and I would've, too, if I'd sprayed myself with that essential oil / water mix.
 
9.    Tons of People, Cows, Prairie Chickens, Mallards, Geese, a Lake & a Cattle Ranch
 
Yep.....that's right!  Monza experienced them all.  No wonder I had to run cold water on my hands the first night.  Holding the Wal-Mart greeter at bay with the leather lead was a treat!
 
All in all, the little guy was an excellent traveling companion!
