My 9 year old son Luke and his dad are away in Indiana visiting grandparents. We live in Seattle. I talked to them by phone last night and told Luke that our friend Satchmo had died. We had a good cry together.<br /> Thanks for the memories.</p> Beautiful picture. My 9 year old son Luke and his dad are away in Indiana visiting grandparents. We live in Seattle.

It sounds like you could have used the Dog Whisperer’s help with Hilda. Regardless, good on you for taking her on and sticking with her. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen Cricket Cast, but Hilda looks like she could be Cricket’s cousin.<br /><a href="http://cricketcast.net/" rel="nofollow">http://cricketcast.net/</a> (the earlier videos are highly amusing and poignant, well worth watching.)</p> Gttim, I was very moved by your post about Hilda (the hellion) and very sorry for your loss.

laughter of our friend, that this one
garden is forever locked against us. And at that moment begins our true
 mourning, which, though it may not be
rending, is yet a little bitter. For nothing, in truth, can replace that
 companion. Old friends cannot be created out
 of hand. Nothing can match the treasure of common memories, of trials endured 
together, of quarrels and
reconciliations and generous emotions. It is idle, having planted an acorn in
 the morning, to expect that 
afternoon to sit in the shadow of an oak.
