It's so Big!

Texas A/M is so huge!We went a different way and instead of seeing the "M' side where the future officers were all doing things in the fields, we saw the massive stadium and them some theatrical events were going on. It is so strange to be on a campus after all these years. My spirit is still me and the strange thing is that I felt like I fit in, in a way. In reality, what the other students saw looked more like 2 older parents escorting their daughter to class. I don't think we could pass for professors either.
 The students at the Service Dog training seem to really like us there. I think we break the monotony- especially when my dear husband, who had brought in a forbidden soft drink, tried to take a sip and spilled it all over the carpet. It was clandestine no longer.
Mollie was still the only dog attending. She is only 11 months old and doing  great. She is still quite young but has her vest privileges. Tonight they mainly discussed their rules for service dogs. It is quite strict.

It is a bit of a ride but we will be going next week too! I am posting a picture of Mack. He already had about 7 commands down- great for being just 2 months old. Jeanne (his owner) works with him a lot. Next year he will accompany Allison (his companion) to her special school. Here you see Mack and Allison. She can only say 1 word- his name.
