Tonight Nokes went into his crate for the first time to sleep, it was really cute. We put up our new bedroom set, and he really likes to hide under there. He has also starting going into his box in our room to lay down as well. When Paula was over last night he spooned her on the back side of her tooshie, lots of great photo opps.

Tonight we also thought that he felt a little warm, so we had to take his temperature, no mistakes this time around.

A lot of time had passed, and planned weekends didn’t work out. But finally, the third weekend of April Justin was coming down. I finally decided that I should try to sell the cab for really cheap so he didn’t have to haul the stupid thing down here and then have me try to sell it, or give it away. I have had some call backs from my multiple posts, but no one has committed to buying it yet.

Spring Indianapolis USAmusement Auction April 2007

Looking forward going to this auction this time around, specifically because I am on the lookout for a short list of machines. I would say most of them won’t show up, but two or three might and this might be a great place to get them because of the drop in attendance. But because of the attendance dropping, this could also mean an even worse show than the last one.

At the very least, I will be going early in the morning to check out what is available.

Now that …

Today was the first day that Nokes went down the deck stairs, twice, without help.

Tonight we were on the road a lot getting the bedroom set, but the one notable thing that happened…

Sarah said that Nokes saw himself in the chimney glass doors, and started growling really low and backing up, all the way to the back couch across the room. He even at one point jumped into Sarah’s lap and continued to start the glass down. The reality is, he isn’t a genius, but that is ok.

Pengo at Bidding At Auction in Grand Rapids

I haven’t done a lot with this game since I had problems with it over a month ago. I got the game working for the most part, but it was really loud. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get the volume turned down low enough so that it didn’t hurt my ears.

But, when I would move the coin door, I would get some static noise. The next time I turned the game on, I got garbage on the screen.

So this week, I was looking at an auction site in …

Nokes first storm, he did pretty good. He has started doing a cute little puppy yip bark, which we try to be good and not encourage.

Today three times he responded to the down command, so now with sit, he is starting to recognize things. I think he is starting to get his name as well.

Tonight Sarah said he was walking the perimiter of the deck. He has certain sides he likes to try to get up on, mostly the west side of the deck because it is closer to the …
