Question & Answer Time with Oliver the Snail

Hi, everyone. It’s Sasha. We’ve been getting a lot of mail here at Cherry Wood Lane Pals Central (my house – but I thought that sounded more important). I’ve been barking at the mailman every day, asking if he has anything for us. Some days, he says, “Yep, I sure do, Sasha. You can have it if you stop barking.” It’s extremely hard for me to stop barking, but I want to get our mail more than I want to bark so I settle with wagging my tail and jumping up and down. I asked Diana to gather all our […]

Road Trip for Ryan

Ryan has a big family. He loves his whole family and they love him. His Mom and Dad live nearby on Peachtree Boulevard. Ryan wants to visit them for Thanksgiving. He is working really hard to make a walnut pie for dessert. There is just one problem. Ryan is scared to travel from Cherrywood Lane to Peachtree Boulevard. All the Pals get worried when they know he is traveling to visit his family. Why? Peachtree Boulevard is a big street – much bigger than Cherrywood Lane. Big streets are dangerous. They are filled with fast driving cars. There is a lot […]

Under The Lamp Post – Chapter 13

I woke up early, rushed through a routine, morning yoga session and trotted downstairs to check on the party preparations. Patio chairs fluffed? Check Pretty flowers watered? Check BBQ grill ready? Check Diana zoomed round the kitchen making burger patties and potato salad. I walked right into the middle of the kitchen and test drove a possible plan, pretending to dance to the right, but actually sliding to the left. Bingo! The flat tray of burger patties nearly fell to the floor as Diana did her best not to step on me. Glaring at me, she shouted an often heard […]

Under The Lamp Post – Chapter 12

Out and about on my evening walk with Diana, I was busy minding everyone’s business, keeping a watchful eye on stuff. We stopped in front of Duchess’ house so our humans could talk about the neighborhood BBQ party tomorrow. I wagged my tail and nodded at Duchess. We quietly stood side by side in the grass along the sidewalk. The golden sparkle was returning to her beautiful eyes. I was relieved to see her getting better so quickly. Duchess meowed to let me know she had something weighty to ask. Sasha, can you do this tomorrow night? Share with me what is […]

Under The Lamp Post – Chapter 11

Barking my head off, I dug in my paws and resisted as Diana dragged me into the house and slammed the front door. No, Sasha. You’ve barked at enough invisible dangers today. What! Who is she kidding? Invisible? Not this time. Danger locked eyes with me and made itself known only 20 feet away from my very own front door. I rushed through the after walk nightly cookie ritual and returned to patrol the front door, sniffing all around the frame. Diana turned out the lights and headed up to do work on her yarn projects in the Girl Room. […]

Under The Lamp Post – Chapter 10

On Cherry Wood Lane, good news spreads even faster than bad. Before the garage door to Duchess’ house slid shut, Leola and Ryan were rushing as fast as their wings and paws could go down the streets sharing the news flash with every Pal. Duchess is home! Duchess is home! Reaching my house, Leola swooped down and hovered in front of the dining room window. Sasha! Did you hear? Did you hear the news? Hurry, come join us in welcoming her home. I shot from my chair and dashed to the window, barking and leaping as high as I could […]

Under the Lamp Post – Chapter 9

Diana and I made our way to the park so I could work off some of my energy before bed. I distractedly sniffed my way down the sidewalk as we headed to the park in the very center of our neighborhood. My thoughts were heavy and important. Once there, Diana took a seat on a wrought iron bench and chatted with one of the other humans that lived on the lane. She let my extension leash unwind all the way out as I sniffed my way into the shadows from the tall fir trees. Back to the sun and noisy […]
