Pilgrims

Just thought I better let you all know what happened with the dog Osa - cause I didn't want anyone losing sleep and feeling 'out of the loop'. So, we did infact find her again as the photos show. She was equally thrilled to see us and happily followed us all the way out to our house about a kilometre from town. She then plonked herself on the cement floor of our loungeroom and ate two frankfurts in one gulp. Shortly I had the brilliant if shortsighted idea to give her a bath. No sooner did she see the soap and towel in my hand as I gently but firmly led her outside than she got that hang dog look and raced out the front gate. She has certainly wisened and hardened up during her years on the streets as no amount of dragging and frankfurters would get her back in to the house and after hiding out for a while under a truck she slipped back to town. Gabriel and I were a little dissappointed but we still see her around town and she is always very excited to see us and comes over to say hello, so maybe we'll invite her over again sometime soon, but I will not be so presumptious with the soap.
