Good afternoon, good evening, good morning (wherever you reside)!

My name is Stacey and I'm looking forward to traveling the globe and visiting my new friends at able2know.

I've been reading the forum and lurking behind the scenes via Tsarstepan's account. I felt it was time I took off and traveled the globe as Penny the hamster (http://able2know.org/topic/96041-1) is my greatest motivation.

If you're willing to host me in my journey across the globe then I'd be happy to drop in a visit ya. Just PM me or tsarstepan if you are interested in taking part in this adventure.

Like Penny's adventure, time is not that important. I have all the time in the world.

1.) Be a responsible puppster-caretaker.
2.) Be willing to pay shipping to send me, Stacey, on my way.
3.) Be willing to give your address to an A2K'er (the one who sends me, Stacey, to you).
4.) Have a camera or another means of taking my picture in your area.
5.) Be willing to post pictures and descriptions here on this thread.

Oh, Stacey, would you like to come to Boston? And maybe even Long Island if you come soon - you could see my parents' new home.

@jespah,
Sounds like a very wonderful first step into the big wide wonder that's our world.

@Stacey the red baron,
Hi Stacey!

I look forward to meeting you on your travels. Hopefully you can visit while one or another A2ker is visiting Tranna!

Hi, Stacey

I see you're following the cue of Penny - hitting the cider.

@margo,
I'm on my way to the hub of the universe! Boston! To see the great Jespah and RP!

But I'm a bit worried about the trip. This doesn't look like an airport. Embarrassed

Let me first protest our method of transportation! At least I packed light. Razz

I'm here! Oh, Boston!

So jes and Reg have already gotten me into a little bit of a routine. Hmm! I'm actually doing a little work while I'm here.

The first thing I had to do was, you see, jespah is a writer. She asked me to edit her work.

Just between you and me, it's kind of a rough draft.

Then I figured I'd look for a surer thing in terms of reading material. I can't decide which Tolkein book to read!
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyBookChoice08082014_zps9cdad068.jpg

I looked around their house. jes's father has a bunch of patents! They decorate most of the walls on the first and second floor of the house.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyPatent08082014_zps7cec4230.jpg

I even checked out - jes has a personally autographed photograph from her favorite actor, Steven Culp. He even wrote her a nice note encouraging her in her writing. I had to get close to read his handwriting. His penmanship could use a little help, you see.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyCulp08082014_zps64057e82.jpg

Finally, we had a snack. I had a vegan ice 'cream' on a stick. It was really good!

I wonder what my adventures will be tomorrow.

@Stacey the red baron,
I was getting worried there a bit. Good that you arrived safely to your destination Stacey. Now don't you go completely over to the dark side and go all vegan on us. Wink

Have fun mon Ami! Keep sharing your adventures!

@tsarstepan,
It was only vegan for the evening, so we can, you know, do a little preemptive cholesterol watching. One's travel diet is often problematic, you know.

I do believe her passport will be notarized (if there's ink in the stamper).

Today's already been full, and it's only a little after 1 PM here.

First, we had to take RP to Back Bay.

I consulted the GPS.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyGPS08092014_zps20f345f9.jpg

I wanted to drive.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyDrivesB08092014_zps63ba5f47.jpg

But jes said I was a little unclear on the concept.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyBackBayStationB08092014_zpsca67ed07.jpg
Plus I couldn't reach the pedals.

We got to Back Bay!
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyBackBayStation08092014_zps36ce446a.jpg
It's a nice area of the city.

We opened the sun roof.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceySunroofB08092014_zpse8ae1490.jpg

I wanted to go back that way but I was voted down. It was an insurance thing, I'm led to understand.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceySunroof08092014_zpsbd8950b5.jpg

Then we did a little cooking. I was the sous chef!
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceySousChefB08092014_zps3fdc89af.jpg

I had some of the green apple after I'd helped cut it up.
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceySousChef08092014_zps3a6e1e83.jpg
I really concentrated so I wouldn't accidentally hurt myself.

Then we went outside. It's a beautiful day! The hibiscus bush was blooming like crazy!
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r299/jespah301/Silliness/StaceyHibiscus08092014_zpsa22bb9ad.jpg
jes held onto me so I wouldn't fall into the hibiscus bush.

This is my favorite picture from today.

@Stacey the red baron,
Oh! no wonder Jespah's dad knew how to fix the freezing fridge! Impressive, those patents, Penny.

Hibiscus!! I miss Hibiscuses!

Back Bay, that looks very nice.

Stacey and I are having a somewhat quiet day (yesterday was rather full). I have chores to do and she's reading The Hobbit.

She'll have to hang around a fair while 'till I get there, though!

@margo,
we need to let Bazza know about Stacey.

He and the Fredster really enjoyed hosting Penny O'Hamster.
