I Really Didn’t Sign Up For This

Hello! My name is R. L. Monkee. And I go on adventures. Pretty clever since that is the title of my blog, right? No one asked if I wanted to go on adventures. They just take me. They being The Incredible Woody and her husband, Vol Fan.

So sit down. Kick off your shoes. I'll tell about my most recent adventure.

I was excited about looking out of the window but there was nothing to see except clouds.  For the entire trip – nothing but clouds!!

Several hours later we landed in Las Vegas!!  We gathered our luggage, rented a car, and headed out of town.  Wait!  What?  Out of town?  We were in Las Vegas for goodness sake.  Why would we want to leave?  But Woody had ideas and ideas lead to problems for me and Vol Fan.  So we set off on a 3-hour drive....
