Hello, and thank you for reading my HACKED blog entry. My name is Elsie and I am a dog. My parents are Boo and Judy. On Saturday, they decided to go see their daughter Maddie in Baltimore and catch Orioles/ Nationals game. Jason Werth is Judy’s favorite baseball player and is now a Washington National. Judy was not happy with the Phillies for not signing Werth. I haven’t seen her that upset since the time I had worms.
While they were gone, they put me in the care of our neighbors Mike and Sarah. They’re nice people, Mike is a really great guy with beautiful blue eyes, a warm smile and fantastic sense of humor, he works hard ..…(focus……) and always has something planned for me. First, we had lunch. They had a yard sale and their son, Owen, was selling hot dogs. He’s a good kid so I bought one.
After lunch Mike decided to show me how to play golf.
Obviously I don’t have thumbs and cant grip the club. But he was so excited I just couldn’t tell him.
After golf Sarah was scared I would run away. Apparently she has never had a dog before. So she asked Mike to read me a book. I was hoping he would read Clifford, or Snoopy or maybe even some Marmaduke. Nope, he reads me “A Man, A Can, and A Grill.” God Bless him, he tries……
After story time I was feeling like a nap. Owen was hoping I could play Shoots and Ladders, but I haven’t been this tired since Judy decided to hike to Lancaster and back, mow the grass, then take me for a bike ride at Middlecreek. So Mike took me back to my place and I relaxed until dinner. All in all it was a good day. I was really glad to see my family that night. It would have been great if they bought me a souvinir or two from the game, but the time they spend with me is just as special.

Guest blogger Elsie: thanks for the great out-loud-laughs! (Glad you could hack in, because I really enjoyed your entry.) Sara & Mike took good care of you & gave you lots of attention. You're a wonderful dog, Elsie. Judy
Els: I noticed you were slacking a little bit that day we hiked to Lancaster. (Keep up, pup!) Oh, we were hoping to catch a game ball for you and the t-shirts in your size were sold out.
Hey Elsie if you ever want to go out for a walk or maybe a milk bone, just scratch at my door.
