Moral of the story.........I am with Terry. Leave Tubby and Peanut and when you get home, have a joyous reunion with them. I would never want anyone to go through the grief I did in 1989. Thankfully, Mimi joined me very quickly after the loss of Shrimp Boat, and boosted my spirits somewhat. And she is still with me today, at 13 1/2 years old. But I have never gotten over the guilt of losing her.

Glad you had a terrific trip, and welcome home!!

Thanks for the welcome back everyone.

And yes, this is one of the things I've thought of too, and one of the many reasons we haven't brought them along yet. I don't think it will be too much of a problem though, because Tubby knows what "NO" means and to stay away from the door when we're coming and going. I think he learned his lesson when I slammed a heavy door on his tail a few years back. (ouchie!) And Peanut never makes an attempt to run out the door - too scared I guess, but yes, I would be devastated if they did get out and got lost, especially at their ages, and Terry would be an absolute basket case for months to come.

So as you can see, there are many reasons why they haven't come along yet, and this is definitely one of them. There really is much more involved than just dumping them in the motorhome and taking them with, and we just haven't gotten to that stage yet.
