Yesterday was quite exciting!
First off, I got to go to Starved Rock State Park! A nice long hike, and only one group said I was a Schnauzer…that’s progress!
THEN, we went to my hooman cousin Summer’s house, to meet their new pup, an Australian Shepard named Juno.
But first, I had to give their horses a glaring of a lifetime….

Then, I met the new pup…
BUT, that’s not the exciting news. We were going through some old pictures, and found pictures from Angus’s GOTCHA DAY, back on Father’s Day of 2001! We thought these pics were lost forever.
Here’s Baby Angus…pics you, nor me, have EVER seen before…
BUT WAIT, it gets better!
We had pics with Angus and Angus’s Mama, right before he left her forever, sniff…and Remember, this is my GRANDMOTHER, since Angus’s full brother is my Daddy!
And then, we have pictures of Angus saying Goodbye forever to his Daddy, My GRANDPA!
And pictures of Angus’s Homecoming with his soon to be Best Friend Forever, Lady. Look How Small Angus is…his ears aren’t even up yet!
And in case you forgot, compare these pics to Angus as an Old Man, just this year before he went to the Bridge (where he now joins Lady, his Mama, and his Daddy)
ISN”T THAT EXCITING! I am so thrilled to find these pictures!
Oh, and Mama got word that we are picking up the new Golden Pup, who Mama is naming Cary Grant, on October 15th.
BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE PICTURES, HUH?????
That’s awesome!!! He was such an adorable little guy. Miss him and his witty thoughts, but am happy that you are keeping his legacy alive!

she watches them all the time. Her best memory in the world is Catman and her going to Nashville to see Cary Grant give a speech just a few months before he died.

oh, the Zone of Hostility will be operational – that’s for sure. If I can get a Pitbull to roll over and show his belly at me like I did THursday (Details to follow this week), then a Golden Pup will be a piece of cake

Good to see you keeping those horses en pointe! We love the pup…Mama and PawPaw had a much beloved pup of the same lineage. She kept Josh & Noah herderd right up too. And to the family archives…priceless. Perhaps you will make a special album with them? They are priceless. And Ainsley, you are too, Lt. Angus left a huge paw print, and we will always adore him. But Girlfriend, you are making your mark too. And you are creating your own, pawesome legacy.
Fondly, Your pal Skyler & you know who…….

One of the great things about blogging is that it forces you to takes pictures along life’s journey. We wish we had started earlier-most of the pictures we have are after we started blogging and someone would think that she was always an old girl.

Lovely pics – thanks for posting them! I do hope both Mama and Catman know Goldens have no head for business… AWE may have to go outside the family for additional support – and THE Bear is proof that may not work out too well!

It’s so very hard for me to imagine Sarge as anything other than full boar big and in charge! Thank you for reminding me that we all start small but can finish larger than life.
