It’s a new day, a new season.
The rising sun reminds me of the beauty in the world.
Satin reflections on the lake
Bring a sense of calm;
And my jetty always has the most
Beautiful views.
(This is Ruby: Oscar’s great-granddaughter, who is now our dog.)

I’m so happy that Oscar’s magnificent genes live on in the beautiful Ruby and that you have her. Still so very sad for the loss of your wonderful boy. So many times over the years I had fantasized about visiting you and getting meet him in person. No matter how long we have them, it’s never long enough. What cruelty that our fur babies come into our lives for such a short time. Know that you and your family are in my thoughts and Oscar will always be in my memory still making me smile. Big hugs, my friend.
