8/6/05 Saturday
Today started out pretty mellow. We slept in, and didn't get going until late. We ended up going to Suzi's cousin's. When we got there we met a guy named John. Samantha started barking ferociously and acted scared!! But I, Ginger the Brave Warrior Princess snuck in and sniffed him, giving my lick of approval! Upon seeing that he did not murder or maim me, Samantha cautiously sniffed him, gave him the lick of approval, and let him pet her... It was kind of a role reversal for us. Normally Sam takes all the risks of the first pet from strangers... whew, that is Taxing work!!

Turned out that he happened to be running by their house, and the kids were having a lemonade stand out front, so John stopped for some. He is in the process of running from Newport CA to Newport RI. Makes our little adventure pale in comparison! He is a great guy, and we enjoyed talking to him. Turned out his visit to the lemonade stand turned into a stop for the night. Suzi's cousin and her husband offered him a place to sleep for the night. He has a web page at www.runwillyrun.com. check it out!

We were also entertained by the cartwheeling Sara. :)
