[nagdu] flying, changes, and vet visit

[Larry D. Keeler]

First thing Holly did, when we got home was run in my sons room and dump! 
No, she had been out but when we got back, it rained for 3 days and I'm not 
sure if she was nervous or if she just didn't feel like going out in the 
rain!  But, that stopped really quick!
