Possibly, I hope that's the case. On the other hand they've been out
about 5 days now. That's a long time for two inexperienced people

I would have typed "incompetent" instead of "inexperienced." Seems like
they've been telling us about their very long laundry list of mishaps for a

But, I wish them no harm. I just wish they'd pay more attention to the
basics instead of all the gadgets that misdirect their efforts from the job
at hand.

I can't help recalling how many times their kitty cat ran away and tried to
avoid going along with them this time. I think the poor animal knew
something her owners didn't.
