18 months ago, I bought Ms Piggy pretty much on a whim after being on the road on my bike and Vespa and wanting to continue, but needing a more permanent home base. She was easy to maneuver, fully self-contained (bathroom, kitchen, bed etc) and had a hitch that could handle the weight of the

Why, hello again! We fell off the radar with this blog for a multitude of reasons, which I may get to in coming days and weeks. But today is National Dog Day, so it is a truly appropriate day to begin anew. Happy National Dog Day to all the furry companions who have every enriched
