A Small Experiment

   So, today, we decided to see how lucky would feel about being left home alone while we went food shopping.  In the past, he's gone to his crate when we went out, and just for short times.  Today, we were gone for an hour, and left him the run of the house.
   Not our best idea.
   Nothing of value was destroyed, but he'd clearly had a field day.  Lots of torn paper.  Evidence of a visit to my bed.  Very high spirits when we returned.
   We don't blame Lucky.  We're just glad to know that he's not quite ready to leave the crate behind, and we're so grateful to his family for giving it to us!
   Today was Calton Hill twice, and Salisbury Crags once.  He took a fancy to a stick, which he carried proudly.  You see, it's the simple pleasures that he prefers.
