Andrew visited Gonzaga today rather than attend school. He's there visiting his cousin Kara (a student there) and his other cousin Nick (in photo, left) and Spike the Mascot (also in photo, center). It appears he visited the bookstore as well. What a life.

Busto!

Buster loved his family, and I'm so grateful to everyone for taking care of him and loving him. What a fabulous life this dog had. I'd love to hear your favorite Buster story below.

Here's one of mine: Every time I would visit mom and dad, Buster would insist upon sitting on Grandma's lap. She would complain about how heavy he was (12 pounds) and there were times when he would sit on her knees, almost extending them backwards as she stretched her legs across the ottoman. Eventually, Grandma would say, "There are four other people in this room, Buster. Can't you sit on someone else?" And if someone offered, she would refuse (and Buster wouldn't budge). They were pretty happy with each other just like that.
