Marty got me out of the car and we went for a little walk to this super cool log house. (Marty says it's called a cabin.) When we first opened the door, there was a toy right there for me! I only barely got to sniff it though and I was just going to put my foot on it and see if it had a squeaker when Marty said, "Lyle, please come in here and deal with this mouse!" Marty yanked me away from it, which I thought was very mean and maybe a little payback for all the times I've tried to pull her computer away from her. Lyle hit the mouse with a broom really hard and then scooped it up and put it outside. Don't get me wrong, I like my own toys, but when someone leaves you a present, I don't think your humans should hit it with a broom and throw it out.
After that, we got settled in. Savage River has dogs that work there named Koko and Karma. I didn't get to meet them, but they left me a note. Our cabin had dog bowls for me, so I drank a lot of water and had some kibble. 
We played squirrel fetch for a LONG TIME in the cabin. It a really good break after all that time in the car. Marty likes to throw the squirrel places she thinks I will have to work at, but I am very good at this game, so I have no trouble with under the steps, behind the couch, or next to the wood stove.Marty and Lyle were pretty tired because they'd gotten up so early, but I wasn't tired at all. They put me in the crate to go to bed, just when I thought we'd agreed I didn't sleep in the crate anymore. I barked for THIRTY MINUTES which I reserve for big tantrums. Marty was very upset and said that if I couldn't be quiet we wouldn't be allowed to come back. I was really upset about that, because SRL is super cool, so I barked some more. Marty even threw the sheet over my crate to try to make me be quiet, but that just made me bark because it was so dark. Finally, I decided my humans are hopeless failures and I quit barking. I'm thinking about taking them to the Humane Society and getting different ones.
