Gone but not forgotten.

Well Quality over Quantity again this week. Both heartfelt photos I can tell. Could toss a coin, but I am going to go with OldCrow's handsome tribute. As a long-time dog person myself (and I know Ed, also, with Harley) I have done this many times, too.

Don - your move in # 638.

(Sorry I'm a bit late. Bunch of Zooms today.)

Thanks for the nod Rob.

Next challenge is posted HERE.

Congrats Don! Heartfelt image for sure.

Rob, you are so right about the pups, done that too many times...

We are in search for Harley's successor (that doggie will have big paws to fill)
