Re: HaPpY BiRtHDaY AnnW! :) -- LauraG (Laura Grosvenor), 20:29:11 06/10/12 Sun
Wow! I don't get around here as often anymore , but was a bit distressed when I saw that your birthday had come and gone without my notice.
I send you my belated wishes. I'm so sorry to hear of your dog's passing.
I know it must be a great loss.
It's fun to know you are still running around hither and yon and connecting with some of my favorite spots; Bellingham for one. There's that one little restaurant on the side of the hill just down from the university on a little side street. I can finally get myself there, but I can never remember the name.
I'm headed over to Pendleton on the 4th this year to the Umatilla powWow with two of my sisters. Im' trying to behave myself and hang closer to home because of gas prices, but I can't guarantee how long that will last. I definitely have the travel bug.
Love to you all, and best wishes to AnnW et al.
LauraG

Hi ya LauraG!
Thanks very much for your kind thoughts and wishes. I wish I could pinpoint the restaurant to which you refer. There is one in a seemingly residental area that I hear is amazing. I've biked past it many times but never have had the occasion to dine there. For the life of me, now I can't remember the name. Rats, now I will have to drive past tomorrow or just make it easy and ask. So many great places to eat in Bellingham! Love Mallard ice cream.
So looking forward to taking the train this weekend up to Vancouver,BC. Only $28/rt from Fairhaven Station(Bellingham,WA)and, where I work is just across the street so it's an easy park/walk. My friend found a posh hotel for us to stay,(hope they can deal with backpacks and jeans!) Too bad if they can't!
Lately, I find myself missing this place, your voices. Thanks for still hanging around.
Love to you,
AnnW

re: Jessie -- BC, 05:09:33 06/11/12 Mon
- is Jessie the same dog who was injured just before the trip you had planned to take to CA last November? I'm so sorry too that you lost your sweet friend AnnW! My life has not been the same since my Rottie and I "adopted" each other this past October. They are such true and loyal companions.

Re: re: the pow wow/Jessie -- AnnW, 20:11:34 06/12/12 Tue
BC, Thank you. Jessie, is not the dog that was mauled. Luka is the one that was hurt. He's a double merle aussie I rescued and is almost totally blind. Defending himself against 3 aggressive heelers left him shredded. Unfortunately, that wasn't the last time, (another story). Now I'm down to one cat, one dog and 2 horses. Agh, I feel naked! Jessie was a guardian angel and is missed so much.
Laura, I've been to several pow wows here in the northwest. I wonder if the Pendleton one differs from the ones I've attended. I hope it is memorable.
Love,Ann

Re: HaPpY BiRtHDaY AnnW! :) -- Brittany, 14:26:43 06/13/12 Wed
I'm so sorry to hear about Jessie :( I just finished writing a long story about losing my dog last September in a reply to BC in another thread. I had her since she was a puppy, too, and then had 15 blessed years with her before she died in my arms. I always worried about what I would do if/when I lost her, and I felt like I would be able to say something better when friends' pets died, but I still don't have the right words. All I can say is I know how animals can be a member of a family and I've still got a hole in my heart that will always be there.
This picture made me cry a little, but it did help me:
I'll bet Piccolo and Jessie are having a blast running around, playing with each other, waiting for us to come so they can show us off :)

Oh thank you!
Brittany, it is hard to lose family. These steady, ever steady creatures are always and ever true. If they are, only, proof that some love never, ever changes. Their love never gets bored, never sees greener(unless there's a biscut, bone, free scratch,... and only for a moment), only you matter. Only the sight of you makes their day. How is that love replaced? It isn't. Tuck it away in your heart. When you need to remember true love exists, open your heart.
Love much,
Ann
