My little red tether is my anchor in running with my friends. A beautiful guide dog has been my tether/anchor in mobility and independence for 17 years: 1. Pantera 2. Cricket, and now my beautiful 3. Georgina (Georgie). A life of family and friends is my joy and anchor in life.

Today we were back on the Legacy Trail - felt so great! We walked for two hours. I think Cricket could have gone for another hour - we loved being outside, enjoying the sunshine and walking in such sync - just feel like one. Cricket now totally understands the trail thing and how you stay to the right side of the yellow lines. This bothered her for a bit last year because she felt she needed to hug the left side -- we had a good chat and I explained that she could get hit by a fast biker going the other direction if she hugged the left side. Luckily, she now understands and does a beautiful job.
