Ann wants me to show some more of the students' art but I want to tell you about something else first.  We were driving along and stopped at a lake.  There was a picture of me on a pole and I was so pleased that I was famous enough that people put welcome Shira signs up before we come through.  Except there was a red line through me so they must have thought I had already been there.  Then farther along there was another similar sign and to my shock Ann told me it meant I am not allowed on the beach or the grass.  Ann said people worry that I make a mess.  How can I make more of a mess than people have already made?  Humans!  I sure don't understand them sometimes. 

Your favorite, famous dog, Shira.
