That Poem really touched me too. So beautifully written.

I copied it out and will send it to my Daughter in Seattle who had to put down her
beloved, aging, dog, Bear, several years ago. He was rescued from a pound had been with her for years.
She is such an animal lover.
In 1987, she got a summer job in Anchorage to watch someone's house.
She chose to drive the distance--all across the Canadian Highway, just because she was not going to put
Bear in the guts of an airplane. She camped along the way--probably a beautiful trip in the long run.
It took five days of driving to get to Anchorage.
I flew out to see her just before the house-sitting was over and we drove 5 hours to my sister's house.
who lives in Homer.

Here is Benita with her Pal--Bear in Earthquake Park.
