Nutty Buddy Enjoys the Fiesta

Fiesta Island on San Diego's Mission Bay was our final swim destination before leaving for home on Monday.
This has been an awesome vacation! While I hate to see it end, it will also be great to return to the routine at home. I am much stronger mentally and physically since our departure from home three weeks ago. I am running faster, doing a little jumping (although foster mom doesn't want me to jump because of my hip dyplasia), and eating everything that is put before me.
I sure hope we can eliminate some of those pills when we get back home. First order of business is to get my blood work evaluated again. Keep those fingers and paws crossed for normal values. Hey! I'm feeling pretty normal these days.
Meadow and I do a round robin with the toys. This is great fun, and easy on my old hips.
I will make one last water fetch in honor of Prince. I sure wish he had realized what a fantastic organization he became a part of. If I were there, I would have told him. I am thankful for everything the people in MTGRR have done for me. Prince just didn't realize he was in a great place. I know he is at peace now. But, I wish I could have met him and shared how lucky I feel.
This ball is for you, Prince. I left it in the bay, as a symbol for a good old boy that had to be released to a better place. We will meet when I join you at rainbow bridge some day.
