The WILD BLUE YONDER

Chester blinks his eyes open as Rachell says, “Hey, Chessie” while she nudges him awake early one morning.  Rachell’s swift scoop places him in her folded arms securely. She turns and heads out her bedroom door.

“This is out of the ordinary,” Chester reflects, wondering what Rachell might be up to today. She carries him to her car and sets him in his car seat positioned in the front passenger seat. Much training was involved, but Chester finally learned to be still and not step up on the edges or try to jump out of the padded carrier. Chester watches while she puts on her seat belt and starts the car. Rachell backs out of the garage so she can take off down the driveway. Chester’s mind races as they pull into the street heading out of the neighborhood. The temp is brisk, and the sun is shining bright.

Chester throws caution to the wind stopping on one thought, “I don’t care where we are going, I’m just thrilled we go on these adventures together. Off we go into the WILD BLUE YONDER!”
