Author’s Note

Hello!

Luie Boone again!

Well, Mom and I have done it again.

Our 3rd magazine adventure is now complete!

We are now proud to present our 3rd volume of WAGGERS WELCOME. We have kept to the same set-up, as we feel this will keep things much easier to understand.

Please, again, note that each vacation destination is broken into four sections.

First being an explanation on the location.

Second is the description of the vacation rental our family will stay at. Each family member has their own sleeping quarters. Other amenities are, also, defined. I have added a personal saying to each description. Please enjoy my expressions of each place.

The 3rd page stays devoted to each specific location with 3 dog-friendly activities, 1 dog-friendly eating place and 1 unique dog thing about the vacation spot.

I continue to end the section with a map from our home city of Hortonville, Wisconsin to the destination. This includes miles driving, hours on the road, (courtesy of Bing

Maps: “ Bing Maps - Driving Directions, Traffic and Road Conditions.” Bing Maps - Driving Directions, Traffic and Road Conditions. N.p., n.d.Web. 30 May 2015. https://www.bing.com/maps/.) Also, dog-friendly lodgings (if needed on the way) and my own pet peeve about the location are included.

This is just so much fun and I am having the time of my dog-life discovering new dog-friendly places and still have the desire to visit each one of them.

But, in the meantime, please enjoy my 3rd magazine!

Your friend,

Luie Boone
