Saturday was Dog Day at Shea Stadium so Saturday morning bright and early Daddy, Ellie, and I were off to NY! Ellie was so good on both the train and the subway in her new Sherpa carrier. She was also quite a hit on both whenever people saw her. While we were waiting for the train on the platform Daddy was mobbed by a group of pre-teen girls when they saw Ellie in her carrier. They all ran over to look at her and Daddy opened the top of the carrier to let her say hi. As soon as her head popped out all the girls screamed sending Ellie's head back into the carrier! I think she was a bit overwhelmed by all the attention! On the train we let her pop her head out and all the nearby passengers ooohed and ahhhed over her. They all thought she was so cute and pretty (which she is!) and Ellie was so well behaved on the train. She was equally as good on the subway despite its screeching and all the bumps. When we got to Shea and found the picnic area we promptly ran into 2 other Cavaliers! Over the course of the game we would see 2 more.

Oh and while we were at Shea a camera guy came around taking pics. They wont let me link it so here is how you get to itGo to the link on the bottom right that says "Fan Photos" Look for April 21, 2007 Mets vs Braves game Gallery 102 top row second picture and youll see us at the game!!
Sadly Daddy and Mommy look awful in the picture! We were trying to make sure Ellie looked at the camera that she looks amazing and we look terrible! Can you believe it?!?!
On Sunday Ellie went to visit a friend of mine who I met on one of the many Cavalier boards I use. Molly has 5 Cavaliers (1 foster) and though we have no pictures it was a fun day...though Ellie didnt seem to think so at first. When we first got there Ellie was a bit overwhelmed with 5 doggies all eager to say hello. As soon as I put her on the floor the mob surrounded her. When she ran to get away from them they chased her. I think she was put of a lot by this and kept trying to get onto the couch with us. After a bit the crew all settled down and so did Ellie. Mommy and Daddy sat in the kitchen talking with Molly and her husband Joe and the pups all promptly passed out. The funniest was Spike, who is Molly's foster, is not fixed yet and neither is Ellie so needless to say Spike was quite interested in Ellie. Ellie is however out of season so she had no interest in anything Spike had in mind and let him know that. He would come near her and start sniffing her and Ellie would growl, slowly turn her head and give him a dirty look that almost seemed as she was saying "Not in a million years buddy!" We kept teasing saying Spike had to learn that this approach wasnt going to work and perhaps he ought to bring her a treat or two to soften her up. Needless to say Ellie made her point quite clear shoving him away with her paw a few times even. All in all it was great and I cant wait to see Molly and the fir kids again!
Monday, after Daddy had his accident, Daddy still had to go to school to run his track meet. Mommy dropped Daddy of at 1:30 PM and then went into work late After work Mommy went home to get Ellie and together they went to get Daddy. The meet wasnt over so Ellie got to see the track booth where Daddy works his meets and was the hit of the entire joint as always. Daddy has a few big meets in a few weeks that last all day so Ellie will soon be returning to her job as track booth mascot!
Lastly I leave you with a few more pics of the Princess.
