Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay! We have been pretty busy
the past few days. Anyways, on Thursday, Eileen and I visited the Project Hope
Humane Society in Metropolis. It was great to play with the dogs and puppies.
Lately, I have only cuddled with cattle and a fawn. While at the shelter, we
also talked with the vet tech to find out the biggest needs when it comes to companion
animals down here. We’re thinking about holding a spay/neuter weekend and
creating informational pamphlets to educate pet owners on the importance of
spaying/neutering their pets, flea and tick prevention, and heartworm
prevention. Here are some pictures of the little cuties we met there!

On Saturday, it was back to the cattle. Mike taught me how
to drive the Bobcat and we fixed the feed truck. After work, I scrubbed the
grease off and we interns headed to Metropolis for their annual Superman
Festival. There were quite a few “characters” there.
Then, for dinner we went to a Japanese hibachi grill in
Paducah, Kentucky. The food was great and our chef was very entertaining to watch.
I never thought that the first hibachi grill that I would ever go to would be
in Kentucky.
To wrap up the night, we all went downtown Paducah where
there was a street music festival. We walked the streets for a while and made
our way down to the river bank where we sat as the sun set. It was so gorgeous
and peaceful. Plus, it was wonderful to have all the interns together. We didn’t
realize how late it was until one of us checked their phone. I’m sure we’ll
have a few more nights like that before the summer’s end.
