This book begs the question, “Have you ever lost your dog?”

If you ever owned a dog the chances are you have lost your dog.

I know this because my beagle always managed to get lost.

Now, Liberty on the loose in the White House, is about a dog named Liberty, who manages to gets lost in the most important house in the United House, The White House .

I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends – Especially In Malta!

Vacationing with a group of friends is the best way to vacation…but vacation with a group of friends, to the land of my birth, was certainly a special vacation.

We roamed the island a party of 8!

It was a trip of a life time.  A trip that most likely could never be duplicated.

Thanks you my friends for coming with me to the land of my birth…you all made it AMAZING!
