Shoot

You might remember that I have mentioned living near a baseball stadium.  Apparently it was opening night tonight.  Tibby and I were relaxing on the couch and the only warning we got about the incoming deluge of fireworks was the announcers voice yelling (yes, I can hear the baseball games INSIDE my house) 5,4,3,2,1 and then BAM! BANG! POW! 

I LOVE fireworks, but Tibby HATES fireworks.  Too bad, because they have the best, biggest, brightest, LOUDEST fireworks I have ever seen.  It's a long show too.....

Next year I'll take a video of the fireworks from my backyard.  Hopefully I will be better prepared!

It sounds like our house is being attacked.  The windows shake and it is REALLY REALLY LOUD.

I've lived here for 7 years and the stadium was built 2 years ago......most of the time I think it's an ok neighbor, but NOT when it scares my Tibby baby >:(

Fireworks

Tibby just had her first experience with fireworks.  I live near a baseball stadium and today was opening day for the local team.  Half way through our evening walk the fireworks from the stadium started.  We actually had a really good spot to watch them - standing on the street watching between two big trees.
I was the only one enjoying the fireworks.  Tibby had a huge diarrhea and then threw up.  I have never seen her make so much poop at one time.
  She wanted to run away, but she was really pulling hard on the leash when I would start walking.  I was afraid she might hurt herself, because she wasn't just pulling, but running back and forth in front of me.   When I stood still she would stop pulling, so I stood still.  Eventually she just stood and watched the fireworks, but she was still afraid.  When the fireworks were over we walked home.  By the time we got home her tail was up again, so hopefully she will be Ok.
