Thank you, Cindy.

Because of our long association with the Temple here, we nicknamed her "lecha", which means "beloved" in Hebrew. She was our beloved baby.

What a beautiful name, backhoe.

I cried a lot when our old dog died.
She's buried under her favorite tree
where she used to chase the quail
and pheasants to.

Now when I see them gathered under
the three, I just smile.
