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.

Frequent flier

Cricket and I flew in and out from Oakland Airport on Tuesday for some meetings. Some funny adventures, apparently we were flagged for some assistance - which is great. The only confusion was in the type of assistance we needed - in our to and from flights we were offered a wheelchair - four times!  Cricket was referred to as the best passenger on the plane coming home :).  Indeed an awesome frequent flier.  Perhaps that she had a pilot for one of her puppy raisers helped prepare her for her journeys :).  
Thanks so much for your well wishes for Steve.  He has shingles - no fun but today doing a little better.  It was hard to leave him for the day for these meetings, but I think he is tired of me saying ... now, don't over do it!

Shingles = No fun at all.
Cricket sure looks like a pro at the airport waiting for a ride.
Blessings,
