The last 24 hours have truly been an emotional roller-coaster. Last night me and Dave went and had a great dinner with my former GM of the last two years and his wife. Great food and great company. Afterwards we met up with whom ever wanted to join us for a beer. We are running out of time visiting with people individual, sucks i know, but we still wanted to see some of the amazing people we have gotten to know in these two and a half years here in the dessert. We went to a local watering hole and had a great time until closing. I will for sure miss some of them a bunch. Thanks to each and one of you because whether or not you might realize it, i have learned and grown because of you. It doesn't happen too often but i couldn't miss out on the opportunity to make lasting memories and stand in front of the camera with some amazing women!
Then, 12 hours after this picture was taken my smile turned upside-down as the realization of Casper's departure was happening today. By dinner time my best Buddy left for his new home. Crying for hours, my eyes, heart and face are still hurting from all the sobbing and great memories we shared. And the ache of the emptiness that he leaves behind. He was truly a great dog and i know that he is with great people, but it still doesn't make it any easier. I am just grateful that i will get updates and pictures of his future journey and can see that he is doing great. It will take time to adjust to not being bombarded as you walk in the door, or pestered while slicing cucumbers until i give in and give him his share, or being stepped on because he cant get close enough while getting loved.......
The last 24 hours have truly been an emotional roller-coaster!....
