Dear Friends,

My husband and I have never traveled in the Nevada desert without our dogs.  This week we lost, after a short illness, our German Short-Haired Pointer pictured in this portrait with my husband.  We have wonderful memories of journeying with Choko in the desert and were hoping for many more.  We are bereft at the loss of this beloved family member.

I will be taking a break from blogging during this period of grief and adjustment.  Please know that you remain in my thoughts and my prayers.

Love and Blessings, Vivian
