Mornin’ Everyone.
Thank you, Spence. Our thoughts are with Karen too.

Our thoughts are with Karen this morning also. She and Truman have both been so brave and fought a good battle till the end. We send our love.
8:44 am on August 28th, 2014
WE also echo the thoughts of others for our blog family.

Hopefully everyone received our email. Mom sent it out to smaller groups at a time.
Barb, Mom wanted a beer or wine so bad on Tuesday. And pizza. We held her down and talked her out of it.
8:58 am on August 28th, 2014
We also are thinking of Truman, Karen, and BooBear. They are a class act.
Thank you, O’Howlers.

My heart is heavy.

Pandora yet, I cannot help but smile when I think of the celebration on the other side of the Bridge. Gus must be one happy kitty Kat!

9:15 am on August 28th, 2014
Wolfie! You are so right! We are picturing the happy reunion of Gus and Truman. Thanks for that reminder.

I agree with Billy’s Buddy. So sorry Karen and BooBear.
Good morning all.

Thoughts with Karen and BooBear.
9:26 am on August 28th, 2014
Such sad news. Hugs and prayers for Karen and BooBear. Thank you Spence for setting the tone and more importantly for creating the space that has brought this remarkable family of Plunderers together.
9:28 am on August 28th, 2014
As Gus welcomes Truman to the other side of the Bridge, we send thoughts of Peace and Love to Karen. May she find strength, now and in the coming days.
9:31 am on August 28th, 2014
My heart is broken at the news of Truman. I know that Gus is at the gate of the Bridge waiting for their reunion.
Our love, thoughts, and prayers will always be with Karen and BooBear.

Thank you Spence for this tribute to Truman.

Gasp!…Sob!Sob!Sob!…Oh my heart is broken for our dear Karen…sniffle!
10:29 am on August 28th, 2014
My prayers for peace and healing go out to Karen and BooBear and the rest of their large family.

Dawson: I looked up mosquito hawk. Yes, that is the crane fly and we always call it a “daddy longlegs.”
11:41 am on August 28th, 2014
Karen and BooBear: Echoing the thoughts and prayers of all your friends. Hoping you can find some peace in all the love coming your way.
12:06 pm on August 28th, 2014
We welcomed Truman to This Side of the Bridge with love and open paws. Gus was beside himself to see Truman made whole and Restored to Prime. Truman is no longer in pain. The only hurt now is the one of Karen’s heart with the loss of her love and best friend. Karen, the Veil will remain thin. Remember, we never leave you.
12:08 pm on August 28th, 2014
Karen and Boobear, Our thoughts, prayers, and love are with you.
Our hearts are broken over this loss.
12:17 pm on August 28th, 2014
Dear Creator, Please bless and keep Truman’s spirit. Please, comfort those who are grieving his loss especially Karen. Thank you for the time they had together. Thank you for the tender care she gave him. Please bless Truman will know he is loved. Amen.
12:17 pm on August 28th, 2014
Peace and blessings. Sometimes it seems like there are no blessings, but they can be witnessed even in times of great pain. And it seems like the family of this blog are experts to all that is blessing.

He walks on
He walks on
He walks on
Among the stars
The stars will sing
The stars will sing
The stars will sing
A song of welcome
There is peace
There is peace
There is peace
And burdens lifted
A new life waits
A new life waits
A new life waits
Where spirits are together
He walks on
He walks on
He walks on
To be a star
12:46 pm on August 28th, 2014

YEEEEEEEP!…YEEEEEEEEEP!…Someone here suddenly has the jitters…heh!heh!
3:33 pm on August 28th, 2014
Rio: Unbeknownst to your friend, you are an experienced traveler. Try to calm your friend down because she is going to have soooo much fun, everything will go perfectly tikkedy boo and she will probably come home, quit her job, pack up you and Beau and move North! Along with Wose & Grizz, they will become the Best Dam Handlers for AJ and Philip. WhooooHoooo! Go Snowhook!
4:34 pm on August 28th, 2014
RIO! : An SDD awaits. Skip and twirl as fast as you can!

8:13 pm on August 28th, 2014
Rio, Like Spence says, Just Breathe. She is going to have so much fun!
9:04 pm on August 28th, 2014
Steak! Two nights in a row here. And a delish tomato, mozzerella, and basil salad. Yumm
Mom is still walking and biking and riding. So is Pop. What cranked these guys up? We liked them better when we were all hanging out on vacation.
9:27 pm on August 28th, 2014
Oh no – MAma has become a bookie thingie. What is she thinking?!?
9:38 pm on August 28th, 2014
We can’t believe T&G were allowed to say “bookie”. Ay ay ay.
9:55 pm on August 28th, 2014
Howlers, We don’t think it would hurt to cheat a little on your diet. Maybe a splurge on the weekends?
Night for now. Off to dream land.
9:56 pm on August 28th, 2014
Howlers!…Go!Go!Go!…snort!…Get fit and stay fit!…chuffle!…My friend is going to eat Pizza and drink Beer on her vacation…heh!heh!…But after she is back it is once again back to the ole grudge…sniff!
9:59 pm on August 28th, 2014
We here are going to set aside some fish heads to share with Rio’s Friend. I ate one of my lady’s boots yesterday, another delicacy of the kennel. Delish!
10:04 pm on August 28th, 2014
Annabelle!…snort!…You are nothing if not the Hostest Of The Mostest…chuffle!
10:05 pm on August 28th, 2014
Rio: I have yet to eat her other boot. I’d be happy to save it for your Friend.
10:29 pm on August 28th, 2014
Boot!…I bet if she can cook it over a campfire she would eat it with a little marshmellow on top…snort!…She is really looking forward to sitting around an Alaskan Campfire for some reason…heh!
11:09 pm on August 28th, 2014
Oh my, I think Truman and my friend Faye’s husband must have been on the same trip over that Rainbow bridge.
It has been busy here and I am only now caught up with the last few days. Karen and BooBear we are sorry for your loss. Gus is no longer alone over the Rainbow bridge. (Although how he could he be, with all the Plunder pals now cavorting on the other side.)
11:10 pm on August 28th, 2014
Rio, I can’t wait to see all the pictures and other details your friend will send the blog. I hope you nag her about NOT FORGETTING HER CAMERA.
11:16 pm on August 28th, 2014
Or her airborn, or her favorite tan pug. Rio, does it look like your Friend is packing for two?
11:17 pm on August 28th, 2014
Packed!…I am in the know first-paw that the little Kamera, Kamera-Charge Cord AND the Kamera Software AND cord to download fotos is already packed…snort!…My friend thinks she will be able to upload her Kamera software onto the Hobbits fancy Apple and WAH-LAA upload her photos of each day to CHobbits computer…sniff!…We shall see…We shall See…heh!heh!
11:18 pm on August 28th, 2014
Rio – we had a friend who traveled the world with Doctors Without Borders. She said that one lesson she learned is that almost anything is edible if it is deep fried.
Wonder how deep fried moose lips would be.
11:20 pm on August 28th, 2014
Airborne!…My friend gulped down her first prelim Airborne concoction today after visiting a local Wally-Mart…grunt!…She will be doing this each day before the actual take-off…heh!heh!grunt!…She really does follow my good advice…snort!
11:25 pm on August 28th, 2014
Jello!…My friend told the Hot-Shot she would probably be a mound of jello tomorrow and not to expect to much out of her…heh!…He said he would be right there when she checks in online to her flight and make sure all is golden….sniff!…This may or may not be a comfort to her…heh!…It’s a long story…best not told tonight…gasp!
11:30 pm on August 28th, 2014
Again, I am late to the table. I hope the Karen will draw strength from this family as I did. It is a deep well.
Love and Hugs to all

ML: Wyatt became a dainty licking pro thanks to your maw. She was very patient as he tried his new skill. He is happy to give dainty licks to Karen for medicinal purposes only.
11:40 pm on August 28th, 2014
Gah! Our last post was meant for MTMP about ML.
11:42 pm on August 28th, 2014
Dear ML, We were thinking of you also today. Hugs to you too.
12:10 am on August 29th, 2014
My friends,
Thank you for your prayers and support through this entire fight. Even though Truman eventually lost the war, he fought every battle with courage. God has given him peace and rest now. He soars with the angels.
I love you all.
Karen
12:38 am on August 29th, 2014
My heart and mind is heavy tonight but there is peace in knowing that the suffering has ended. Much love to those who remain behind and are grieving their loss.
12:39 am on August 29th, 2014
Rio: mi computer es su computer while you are in residence at the Hobbit Hotel.
7:17 am on August 29th, 2014
Rio, after your friend stays at The Hobbit Hotel, she will be ruined for any other kind of accommodation. Talk about Hostess with the Mostest. The ‘rents were fabulously pampered.
