Leaving Inverness

Gringo and Baxter enjoying the sunshine on our last day.

Dinner at Zizzi's with Karen, Sarah and Barry.

Leaving a house sit is always bittersweet.  We know we are off on another adventure, but we also know we may never see these pet and friends again. Lexie was very happy to see her people, but on the morning we were carrying everything out to our rental car, she was hesitant.  Would she get to go with us or was she to stay with Karen and Barry?  The night before, when we went to bed, she pushed the door open and came in to sleep with us.  Barry was looking for her, very surprised to find she had come to sleep in our room.  She did end up with them, though.

Lexie wasn't sure about all this.

Gringo and Baxter, being cats, were not too concerned.  They had already figured out that someone was there to feed them.  Ah, Cats!

Our home for the past month; warm and cosy.

I did knock on our neighbors door, the one who always said hello, and was very pleased to meet someone from "cowboy country", as she described Arizona.  I gave her a Ben's coin, to thank her for her kindness.  It was nice being recognized while walking down the street and having someone stop to visit with me.  Thank you to everyone who made this stay so enjoyable!
