Nikki waits

She waits for us at the bridge...in the same way she waited for Gayle to come home at the end of a work day:

Nikki waits for Gayle to come home

Four years ago last week...and it still doesn't seem real that she left.

(Shot with the Nikon D300 using the 18-200mm zoom at 18mm; program mode; camera chose shutter speed of 1/250 second at f/8 at ISO 200; auto white balance; normal JPG.)

  2. What a pretty girl she was! I still get nostalgic on May 5 when Treat left us, too. It's hard not to miss them!

  5. They dig so deep into our hearts... Sending lots of hugs.
    It is of great comfort that we will all be reunited with our beloved pooches; continue to enjoy the bridge Nikki.

    1. i wish we had more time with her, but we say that for every pet we've had. but greyhounds? -- there is nothing else like them.
