Hey, sol. We’ve been missing you. No sightings in a little while, and the weather’s been pretty good, which makes us sad. I was thinking today about how you’d react to the sudden explosion of kids in our neighborhood. You’re quiet (except for the grunting and moaning and huffing) and didn’t like it when it got too loud, so one of the few times you’d bark was when the kids would come home from school. Our (relatively) new neighbors have 5 kids. There were 3 on the other side already. Every day from 3-6 pm, there’s running and shrieking and hide and seek and tag and all sorts of other stuff with all of the kids and sometimes their friends and cousins. It’d drive you NUTS.
Of course you never understood what they were doing — you thought we were under attack. Kind of like the only time we ever tried to take you camping and you patrolled the tent and barked all night to keep us safe. You know our plan this summer was to pitch a tent in our backyard to get you used to sleeping outside so we could take you camping again? We thought once you got used to it, you’d love it.
Where are you, crazyfur?
PS – The reporter who wrote about you for the Boston Globe is in London now covering the royal wedding. He said he’d rather be covering your homecoming, which was very sweet. Marisol Queen of the Fells, you’re the best royalty out there, and you wear a crown so well.



I’ve thought of you and Marisol a lot since we (Buddy Dog) lost and found Maya. Don’t give up on your girl. In one of the sightings of Maya, it was noticed how she was proudly walking along on the sidewalk, like she was finally in her element. Like she was home again, free, out in the world. Like the sato she is. Marisol may feel that way now — what as adventure! But when she gets her first scent of you again, she’ll realize what she’s been missing. You’ll find her! We’re all out here, sending our best thoughts –
Would rather be reading about Marisol’s homecoming than the royal wedding (apologies to William & Kate). Mari – the tiara suits you – it is a very regal look!
the weather is absolutely perfect this morning! perfect for Marisol to make an appearance now that the school rush, which may frighten her, is over…come out Marisol and let someone see you who can help bring you home. we are all out there keeping a quiet eye out for you…
These pictures are wonderful–I particularly love the tiara picture! And so appropos for the day
. The pictures you’ve shared on this site have helped us all to feel like we know Mari; all the little idiosyncracies of her personality and what an amazing girl she is. I’ve been so hoping for a new sighting, and getting Maya back has been a great reminder of how resilient and smart satos are. I think there’ll be a sighting this weekend…I just have that feeling. Sending you both lots of good energy and hopeful thoughts.
A beautiful day for Queen Marisol to make her royal appearance and come home. Your army is out there watching and waiting for you. You are always in our thoughts and hearts.
My thoughts and prayers are with all three of you!! Warmer temps and the sun will make Miss Marisol smile………
You are wonderful people.
I love your pics of Marisol. She is sooooo cute!!!!
She is too cute and I’m hoping she’s out and sighted this weekend! Stay strong!
Love the tiara picture! Here’s hoping for a great weekend with lots of sightings.
Missing Marisol, too. Thinking of you all xo…
