At 10:00 AM on the first Tuesday of the month, the county tests its emergency sirens.

Ashley with her head tipped back on mouth in a little circle, howling along with the emergency sirens

The very first month we had Ashley, we happened to be walking right under one of the sirens at the moment it started up. Ashley started howling along with it, which made me laugh. And Ashley looked a little embarrassed, thinking she’d done something wrong. I didn’t want that, so I started howling as well.

Since then, Ashley and I (and Jackie when she’s with us) have howled along with the emergency sirens every month.

Our neighbors have not complained, although I suppose they think we’re rather weird.

Jackie found a sticker with the logo for Buff yesterday, even though we haven’t bought any lately. I told her I could put it in the envelope of stickers I’m saving for my next laptop. This morning she left another sticker for me. And just now another sticker.

They’re coming thick and fast.
