Who me?!

My scruffy faced baby! I find it so hard leaving her but I am very excited at the same time.
As I write this I'm lying in bed at mom and dads having driven up after a staff twilight! It keep thinking its Friday! It feels like it! But it's not...and tomorrow mom and I fly off to California (where the sun shines bright) for a month! :).
I am so looking forward to it but worry about leaving my baby for so long. I snapped this shot quickly just as I was about to leave the house. She wanted to come with me! She is in good hands and will probably get more treats than what I'd give her! ;)
The other news I have to record is that I saw my second (live) badger as I drove up tonight. Very near where I saw the last one (whenever that was!...I can't remember now).
This one was at the edge of the road on the opposite side from me and looked up at me as I approached and very wisely took a couple steps backwards away from the road.
I just wish I could have stopped to photograph it!
Anyway, must get a couple hours sleep. It's a long day tomorrow! :D
