Happy Independence Day to our American furrends!
As many of you know, Casa De Marv is only 480 yards north of the Canadian/American border. As a matter of fact, one of the trails we like to walk on, on the Mountain, goes across the the border and then swings back into Canada! Mom used to have a US Mail Box and she used to shop in the US all the time. But that does not happen any more. Since Covid, travel restrictions (especially for the dogs) has changed and it is becoming even more difficult this August (https://www.cdc.gov/importation/bringing-an-animal-into-the-united-states/dogs-entering-us-after-august-1.html).
A big US City is the about the same distance from us as the Big City of Kelowna and Mom used to go there (before Covid) and take Cinnamon but she does not any more because it was such a hassle getting Cinnamon across the border.
But enough about our problems, we are here to celebrate with our neighbors to the south!
There's no other day like the 4th of July—wishing you a relaxing day, however you choose to spend it!
Stay safe, and please, if you can, stay inside and don't let the fireworks scare you into running! Getting lost is NOT FUN!
