To talk about this, my day has been good, and so far, I'm enjoying this camping trip. I've also got some great news! We're planning to stay out here in the forest for another day, so we'll be leaving on Tuesday.  I just love to be outdoors, being in nature, and spending time with my friends.

Once again, I ran into my brother John Dory, which we started to have a long conversation, plus I did a surprising thing......I invited him to join me on a hike. Turns out that it was okay. He invited me to join him on a hike tomorrow. I told him that I would be there.  

For my writing, I've got a lot done with that today. I'm at 1600 words out of 14k words. That means that I have around 12,400 words left to go. Oh, to mention, me, Poppy, and Smidge went for another hike, gone swimming, and wrote some more, and ran into a few Trolls along the way, including Guy Diamond.

My First Friend

As you can see from the photo above, my very first friend is Gary. Shock, huh? But it's true. I didn't have any friends till recently, which is Poppy and The Snack Pack. Before them, I had Gary, my remote control son. Don't laugh. Think of the Disney movie Pinocchio. Now you can get the picture, I would like to say that I'm grateful for having him around.

I'm getting ready to hit the sack, and hopefully we'll get some writing done and I'll be having such a great time going on another hike. Oh, we're about to turn off the lights of the lantern. Goodnight.
