Mom and the big man finally showed up last night. Mrs. Neighbor said they would be home from the place where the ground is ice and the mountains are tall and it is cold and there is a different flag called Canada. I waited for them but they did not come home and I was tired of waiting so I went out prowling.

This morning I came in the house and asked Mom why they were so late coming home and didn't she know a cat does not like to wait around. She said the airplane was late and then the big man lost the car at the airport. Mom does not lose our car when she goes to the airport, but leave it to the big man to lose something as big as a car. Mom and the big man had to look for a long time to find our car and the parking lot people had to help too. I told Mom she should just leave the big man at home so our car would not get lost again.

Anyway, Mom did not have time to tell me everything this morning because she had to go to work in her new office. Mom and the big man were very far away where they had to have a book with pictures in it called a passport to go there. They drove around in very tall mountains that had big pieces of ice on them bigger than our house and our whole street called glaciers. It was cold there and Mom did not it to be cold. They drove a bunch of places and saw a bunch of very tall mountains that had big pieces of ice on them bigger than our house and our whole street called glaciers. At one place they got in big car things that drove them right out on top of the big piece of ice bigger than our house and our whole street called glaciers. Mom was very scared because ice is slippery and she did not want the big car thing to slip into a hole. They rode for a long time in the big car thing and then they got out and walked on the big piece of ice bigger than our house and our whole street called a glacier.

After they walked around for a while, they got back in the big car thing and went back to their car. They drove around a lot and had a lot of fun looking at stuff. I don't know why they did not take me with them! I told Mom I am tired of staying home all the time while she takes the big man fun places. She told me cats cannot go to the place where the ground is ice and the mountains are tall and it is cold and there is a different flag called Canada because cats do not have little books with pictures in them called passports.

I got news for Mom. I have a lot of stuff she does not know about because I hide things under her bed and in the big man's closet. How does she know I do not have a little book with pictures in it called a passport? I could walk around on big pieces of ice bigger than our house and our whole street because cats are sneaky and fast.

Mom also told me they saw bears at the place where the ground is ice and the mountains are tall and it is cold and there is a different flag called Canada and that cats should not be around bears. I am around bears all the time! I have one hid under her bed! Mom is always making excuses why I can't go with her. I am tired of it.

I am not scared of bears. I can go to the Cravitz house and borrow one of their little books with pictures in it called a passport. And I will not lose Mom's car at the airport because I am a cool cat.
