Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Well…she made it. Today is the day that Carin and Domino officially graduate from guide dog class. If you’d like, you can watch along as they do. At 1:30 Pacific, 4:30 Eastern (the rest of you can figure that out for yourselves), the ceremony will be streaming live on YouTube. Assuming that everything works like …

Ee ee ee! Training is essentially over. All we have to do is go to the gift shop and get ready to get out of here. I’m mildly concerned that my suitcase might protest under the weight of old and new cargo and I might have to do some rearranging. But I’m not terrified, just …
Good day, and welcome to day 12. I just had to do that for my fellow Canadian in class. To find each other once, we made the Bob and Doug call. I’m sure the instructors thought we were loopy. I’m not sure what we’re doing. The schedule is a little vague. I think we’re going …
Man, that foot soak last night worked miracles on my poor feet. I wonder how long those effects will last. It’s Portland day. The day where we cram in all the city work. Malls, escalators, food courts, farmer’s markets, you want it, they’ve got it. We also talked about airports. I learned something new. Now …
Oof! That was a rough start to the morning. You know, Carin, if you stay up to 11:30 and you then take melatonin, and you want to be up by 6, maybe turn on your alarm. Good idea? Yup! After I was carried away to sleepy ville, the next sound I heard was “Hi there, …
It’s Monday and time to kick some custom route, sidewalkless and night route butt! I slept until 6 and I’m ready to rock. I have shaken off the fog and it’s time to kick it. It’s also the first of May. There’s a song about that, but if I mentioned that song to my classmates …
So it’s Sunday. My day off. It’s a thing. I didn’t take melatonin at the end of last night because I hoped I would only need a tweak. That was a fail. At not even 4, rise and shine! I did have to use the bathroom, but even after that, I couldn’t go back to …
First things first. Sorry to Steve for making all those typos in the last two entries. It’s hard to write anything, let alone stuff like this, when melatonin is doing what melatonin does. I also want to apologize for the flat sound of the last entry. I could barely remember the sequence of events, never …
I’m writing this after taking melatonin in an attempt to help me sleep. This might be a fail. Today was a much better day. My dog and I rocked together as a team. Yea! So I went to breakfast, and ran into a volunteer who won an award at a reunion I was at. I …
So this is interesting. I’m writing day 5’s entry on day 6 because day 5 was a total nut house. I think I got a second person trailing me all day and his name was Murphy. Murphy’s law was in full effect today. First off, I took the big boy out to relieve. I should …
