Transition Time! Spike’s Ready!

From Horses to Horsepower: Our journey is really to highlight the positive qualities of America. The forefront of our world is shifting, and with four little paws, Spike is taking to the road to, literally, shift the footprints of this nation towards positivity and fun…he’s back in gear! (Science question: Why is Spike’s reflection upsidedown in the chrome circle of the Mustang?)

Spike took his first driving lessons in Little Rock Arkansas. We have cut back on some of our stops as not to overwhelm the little one, but he is back in action and ready to roll. During his downtime with his favorite auntie, he jumped into her ride and took control!

I think we are ready for some horse-powered noise. We are headed to Dallas and guess what? There’s a racetrack there–a Nascar raceway to be exact. So, I guess, we’ll see you there or better yet, you can follow Spike’s pawprints there!

This summer, the Mike and Spike, Spike and Mike roadshow will cross America and connect with people and places that make this country distinctly American. 
Horses will be the animal theme that draw us to the locations of states across America as they were historically the lead animal for transport…(Sure Spike, we won’t forget to visit dogs and create a signature print!). As we travel, the horse theme will transition to horsepower! Horsepower, of course, is now our primary means of seeing our country.
The subsequent theme is sand--yes, sand. Why sand? We will travel from “sea to shining sea” and collect sand from each shore; from the shores of the Assateague Island to the Coronado Islands, and the sand dunes in between. And, actually, these locations used to be called “seas.”
