That's beautiful Colcolt - I'm sure that you must feel comforted that she is so close to you. I hope you aren't getting all sad this evening!!! Don't make me start another BBQ thread to cheer you up!
Or I know - how about I send Rupert to you for spring break? I think he'd really like you and he LOVES bbq. You could have some practice with a dog again and maybe get in the mood for one of your own. I'll put him on the bus for you so you can take him to the Tennessee Corgi picnic! I'll just pin his return address to his collar, pack his toothbrush and give him some lunch money!
