Back when I was a candidate, my blogging was generally limited to politically-themed commentary on my own candidacy, my opponent, and issues of the day. It was a rare thing to digress into a more personal topic. The loss of my dog Bandon was the topic of one of the rare personal posts. I reintroduced her in last week's DogBlogging. The original post brought me back into contact with Jen, who I'd known back in the early '90s. We have a lot in common and have, since April, reconnected in a major way. Part of what urged her to contact me then was a similar loss of a dear dog friend.
We have shared many stories about the dogs of our pasts. Over the next few weeks, I'll introduce more of them. Today is a tribute to Woody - Jen's best guy for a long time. He's shown here visiting Lake Itasca (take my word for it), visiting the Oregon coast, and curled up with Tess, his packmate.
As Jen and I get closer to her graduation day in 2007, we have 4 dogs we will be blending into one pack. Sallah and Indy have been seen here before. Nelson will make his debut next week.
