Roxy a.k.a. Roxanne, Roxster, Roxy Doxy


On January 14, 2015 we gained a new member of our family, Roxy.

Its kind of like gaining a toddler and a sassy teenager all in one.
Lets just say that she was a little more than I bargained for.

But she LOVES to go for rides

 So today I took her to the river.


and she loved it!

"That was fun Mom!"
Happy dog

Shake it off

Wait! Who is that?

This is Alex. He was making his first solo canoe trip down a 92 mile stretch of the Wisconsin River.
He planned on it taking about 2 weeks. Unfortunately , a dam up river opened up and the river is high and swift.  A lot of the large sand bars that he had planned on stopping at are 6 feet under water.  
So, he decided it might be best to stop after day 3 and try again another time.  
I dont make it a habit to stop and talk to random people.  He saw Roxy playing in the river
and asked me if I knew where the nearest pay phone was. 
 His service provider didnt cover this area and he needed to make arrangements to get picked up.
So I let him use my phone.  He called his Mama. She is picking him up in the morning.
