As you can see, Maggie is adjusting once again to our live aboard lifestyle here in the Bahamas. It represents her seventh extended cruise - not too bad for a stray pup found on the streets of downtown Atlanta.
She was a master at handling the companionway stairs on Gypsy Common, and it is fun to watch her now as she descends the steps of the new boat. She puts her two front legs down a step, turns a little side ways and then follows with her rear legs. It's almost a hopping action and she seems very sure of herself as she moves around the boat. Maggie loves being where ever we are, and makes the trip many times a day.
Being the ever present watch dog, she loves lying in the shade, occasionally unsettled by a passing dog or cat. Following her "attack" response, she settles back and watches every thing and everybody in the marina.
Maggie is comfortable with her treks around Abaco Beach Resort. She has some favorite trees, and rest stops, and always enjoys being petted by friends and staff members. When we are away from the boat she retires to her favorite spot on board at the foot of our bed.
Having Maggie travel with us has been an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Now that she is thirteen years old, we cherish the time we have had together.
