Kimo Goes to the Bridge. He was a great dog who lived a very gentle, sweet life. He loved his dinner, walks to the mailbox, scratches behind his ears and his canine sisters Ginger and Jolene. Most of all he loved his people. Don and Josh took him on his last car ride today. Theirs were the last voices he heard as he was loved from this world to the next. Tonight he runs on strong legs with the great ones who have gone before him. Maggie, Buck, JD, Stormie, Tex, Orion, Hank, Judge and sweet Atticus. I will miss his head butts and “WoooWooo”s. I know they wait, and it makes my sad heart smile…

Just thought I would send along a few pictures of Jolene in pursuit of the perfect stick! Her daily job is to hunt for the best stick in the yard and proudly carry it around for awhile. Then comes quiet time while she sits and shreds her stick, and finally nap time. Stick-ing is hard work when you are only 5 months old! AND stick-ing is quite the challenge when there is 23 inches on snow on the ground!
