In search of JoJo

Took Kimo out early (pre-Hershey). He wanted to go down the Miyamoto driveway. Fifi (wearing a cone) saw us an barked. Kimo acted up, but not too badly.

The dogs at the other house barked. Or maybe Fifi barked. And Kimo came out to look. I told him I think they're barking at us. He got Fifi's leash and off we went.

I'm think Henry's going to tie up or confine Jojo after he took him home last night, so by some twist of logic, I decided to see if we can find him.

Up behind Chung's house. To the side of the school. There were a couple of places where we could through to Mason Place. But I didn't want to trespass. Then Kimo jumped down the wall and Fifi too. So WTH.

Luckily nobody was home, that I could see. Went down the left side of the house and crossed to the front and had to go to the next house to go down the steps to the street. No shotguns in sight.

Over to Henry's house. No sign of Jojo in the front. Then his little old white terrier (or something) came to the front and started barking. No sign of anybody coming out, so off we went.

Down Mason, down to Walea, to Mahalo, dogs at the corner at Judd barked but not too badly. Turn left toward Liliha.

The three running dogs were down to two runnings dogs. The brown dog with the short legs was running back and forth, while the other one was trying to jump up the fence and sniff. Didn't look too aggressive.

Down to the huskie. He/she was lying in his house. So after waiting a bit, we passed. Then the five (or six) poms across the street starting yapping. And the huskie came out. Back we went. I was surprised that the huskie bared her teeth at Fifi, but didn't go wild. Leaving I could see her name on a metal tag. I think her name is Coda (or something).

Down Liliha, a little boy saw us and seemed interested in the dogs. Then to Chibi's house. I could see part of his white fur around the bend and called him. He seemed to want to sniff but Fifi and Kimo kept their distance. After a while, Fifi gave a quick sniff. And after a longer while, Kimo gave a quick sniff. Chibi looks like how Kimo was supposed to look. Fluffy and white (while Kimo is kind of raggedy and brownish with dirt).

Turn to Bachelot. The house with the dogs had the driveway gate open. The dogs were at the inner gate and barked at us.

Up Bachelot. Visit the Tomomitsu dog at the corner. Looks like a german shepherd and is about calmest dog I have ever seen. Came to the fence to greet us, but the dog never engaged much.

Back to Liliha, this time go down further to visit the dog behind the white railing fence. This dog always seemed friendly to me, but growled at Fifi. Kept sticking her head through and under the rails. And seemed friendly with the excited wagging tail. But the dogs kept their distance.

Up Kunawai. Visit Kunawai springs. The ducks saw us and went to the water. Fifi found some bread and started munching. Rested a little then went across the street to the park and rested on the playground set.

Up Kunawai, turn to Kam Heong, up Laki. Pitbull (caling him Grampa) came to the fence and was friendly. They gave him a quick sniff.

Decided to go down Hala, past people cleaning at Maluhia. No little dogs barking at the old fence. There's no some vegetation growing on one of the fences blocking their view.

Up Naio. Had a man working outside at the corner house and no sign of dogs. Only after we passed a couple of them came out and barked.

Up Naio. See a lady outside on the phone with the hyena dog. Didn't see us until we passed. Up Maalaea. Decided to turn right on Hillcrest and cut through the graveyard.

Took Fifi home. Wanted to take a crap bad and took Kimo home and crapped downstairs.. whew.

Well, it wasn't the last of JoJo after all. Mom said he stopped by when I was out. And I saw him scooting up the street when we came back from Costco. He didn't give and, in the afternoon, Donna heard him whining outside and I let him in the gate. Henry came to pick him up later that afternoon.
