A few days ago we had lunch with mom’s friend Tracy who is super beautiful and really nice and ordered a dish with prawns in it YUM!   I love restaurants!

We were planning on hiking this weekend but the weather has not been cooperating. It has been pouring buckets of rain and there was a hailstorm too!

Mom is spending the day reading books for the forum she is attending. I am keeping busy looking for things to buy on the internet.

There is a stray cat hanging around in our yard!!!  We are feeding him and are trying to make friends with him so we can take him to a shelter and see if he has a microchip. Me and Tabitha are watching for him. While not on the internet ordering stuff with tigers on it.

Today after our volunteer shift at the Animal Shelter me and mom went to the botanical garden in Bellevue. It was really great!  I wonder why our back yard does not look like this.

There was a super suspension bridge that we got to walk across!!!  It swayed up and down when we walked on it !!  I wanted to spend the day running back and forth on the bridge but mom said we should let some other people use it.

Look what else was super cool at the garden!  It looks like  a hobbit house!!!  No one was home when I knocked at the door.  We will have to go back another time.

Today we went for a hike at my favorite place TIGER Mountain. It was cold outside and started out a little bit rainy but that did not stop us. It was time to get out of the house for a while.

Mom stopped to look at some rocks so I had playtime and then she called me over and showed me a rock it was a FOSSIL!!!  Can you see it???  It is a fossil of a leaf that is so cool!  I wanted to look for more fossils maybe we would find a fossil of a tiger!!!!

.

After a little while mom said hey how about we find a sunny spot and have some lunch and I said OKay!!  Here we are getting ready for lunch.  We’ll look for a tiger fossil another day.

Oh Boy mom has been taking me to work a lot with her lately it is so fun!  Sometimes she grumbles about having to go to work she says SOME body has to earn the money to buy the cat food.  But it is GREAT at work!   Here I am helping on the computer.

Here I am with Cheryl she is so gorgeous and really smart we were having fun wearing glasses.

And here is Matthew he is so handsome and super nice.

Today me and Mom went to another building to visit with  Heather. She is so beautiful and also so funny and she has all  kinds of cool stuff in her office. Here she is looking at me with a magnifying thingamajig!  Heather had lots of fun stuff to play with but mom said Be Careful and Don’t Touch Anything.

Oh wow a few days ago Mom packed her suitcase and said I could come with her.  Yay!!!  We stayed at a swanky hotel.  Here is Charles the doorman he was so nice and so handsome.

We were in downtown Seattle that is not too far from home but the confurunce lasted 2 days so we stayed in the city. Here I am looking around downtown.

The next day we went to a forum I do not know what that is mom said it is like a conFURence. At first I had to stay in the satchel. This  is me and you can also see Angelita’s shoes I sat next to her.

The main thing at the conference is to have lots of snacks. Mom are you going to eat that cookie all by yourself?

Then that night we went out to dinner with some new friends we made at the conFURence. This  is Lisa and Gary and Milo and me.  Mom was so busy  yakking she did not get a picture until the very end after all the food was gone!  Lisa is totally gorgeous and Gary and Milo are super handsome. Not as handsome as me though.

Uh oh it looks like Auntie Darcy is packing up to go home. I don’t know anyone else who travels with a sail bag but it is good to be prepared for anything.

Here we are at the airport saying Good Bye. I will miss you!!!

It was sad to see Auntie Darcy go but later that day we looked at all the yummy snacks she brought us from Hawaii.  Hey mom can we open up the potato chips?? Tigers love Maui potato chips. Or how about the chocolates?? I will be good this time and not get over-excited I promise. For real this time.

OMG you have to check out the video that Mom made of me snowboarding!!!  Here is the link to the video you have to watch it  !!!  It is very short it won’t take much time at all.  I am sorry there are ads on the video mom cannot figure out how to turn them off.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f21kU6zvN1M

We had a super duper time at Whistler but now is time to go home. Here we are on the way home at Horseshoe Bay which is very beautiful. It is early in the morning.

There was a fantastic totem pole where we stopped to stretch our legs.

After a couple of hours in the car Mom was getting snappish so we stopped to have some breakfast at the Calico Café it was delicious! I LOVE restaurants!

Here are some friends I made at the café these lovely ladies are Pat and Sherry!

Look at all the yummy pastries in the restaurant bakery!  We should get one of everything. That would  make mom less growly in the car.

Whistler is famous for having bears so I was always on the lookout for bears. Mom said we may not see any because they are probably hibernating.  But I saw some!

Here I am with one that is perfect for holding skis and snowboards! ha ha!

Also we saw a herd of skiing and snowboarding cows.  I do not know what that was about.

Wow the Whistler village is so great there are a lot of super duper places to buy stuff for tigers. This is me with Miyubi and Junko they are totally gorgeous! and work in a café called Hot Buns!!!  That is such a great name for a cafe!!! Ha ha ha!

This is an awesome bakery we went to with superlicious pastries.  The beautiful lady helping Auntie Darcy was from Ireland and had the most fantastic accent!!  You can hardly see me in the picture among all the muffins and cookie bars!

We went to the Visitor Center and talked with Carmen and Shannon they are so nice and are so beautiful.  But even with their great directions Mom and Aunt Darcy still got lost. No surprise there.

When me and Mom were walking around we saw a pub where there was a party going on!!!  I wanted to go in but mom was afraid I would cause too much trouble.  I don’t know why she thinks that I have been good for at least 2 days in a row.

But I got to make some new friends outside the pub!  This is JohnnyT and his friend I did not hear his name it was so noisy at the pub!  Also I think they  had been drinking a little bit. Mom will not let me have a drink she says I will cause too much trouble.  Anyway they were really nice and super handsome.  Not as handsome as me though.

And here I am with Mitsu she is so beautiful and works in one of the shops.

Later on mom went back to Mitsu’s store and bought me a Whistler Blackcomb pin to put on my bandana!!!  Mom said she went in about a hundred stores and none of them had a Whistler bandana but I like the pin even better!
