Getting able to see your uncle Barnaby was probably your favorite thing to do every summer. Every summer break you would go and stay with him and his friends at the neighborhood, getting to hear his goofy jokes and see him do is famous tricks. Plus, he woukd always take you out to Howdy’s to go and get Hotdogs, weird Hotdogs with all different kinds of names and ingredients, and sometimes, you two would make up your own and Howdy would make it a menu item !! How cool is that?

So, once you parents had told you to pack up some clothes and take some road trip snacks, you knew what time it was. You dumped out the school supplies out of you backpack and stuffed it with clothes and snacks. But you had to get another bag for some other things, duh. After getting all your things, you were out on the road and heading your way to Uncle B. !!

The drive was fun. You listen to the songs on the radio, spotted some cool cars while driving, and even got to get a few drinks at some old gas station. But finally, you were there. The colorful neighborhood of 'Welcome Home'. It was a weird name, but you never thought about really. But where was uncle Barnaby? Well, he was waiting for you near the entrance of the neighborhood, of course !! Your parents parked at the entrance, putting the car in park and letting you scamper out of the car to get your things in the trunk, while they got out to talk to Barnaby about some things and just catch up. Afterwards, your parents gave you a hug and waved you goodbye, of course telling you to be safe and call them often, and then, you went straight up to your favorite uncle.

" There's my favorite, shortie !! How've ya been? It's been a while since I've gotten to see you." The tall blue dog asked as he ruffled your hair and pulled you in for a big, fluffy bear hug. It had been some time since he last saw you, last summer to be exact. But you got to see him for the holidays, so that counted. His big paws patted your small head, and he chuckled ad you attempted to fix up your hair.
