We Still Remember 2016

My dad says that I have "great uncles in the clouds" and then he gets this far away, sad look. He calls it - his "1,000 yard stare". Sometimes he'll take off his glasses and wipe his eyes, pause a bit and gently touch my head and the underside of my mouth and chin. He's thinking about stuff. I sit with him awhile and then I paw him, come on dad, let's go for a walk.

(My uncle Max passed away on July 20, 2004).

My Guest Swim Coach

Hi everyone, Erika, who is my usual swim coach is on vacation so Tanisha is my "guest" swim coach.

She's super nice, has a great smile and I've adjusted to her quickly.

She's rubbing my right ear...ooooh that feels good.

This is really nice. I hope that you'll be here next week too.

$300+

My dad said that an accumulation of fur from our towels plugged up the drain and caused water to back up from the kitchen sink and from the washing machine 

after yesterday's rinse cycle. 

We're sorry that it cost so much dad....so will you have to get a part-time job because 

we still need our treats ??? :)

ps. I think that the fur was from the Shelties!
