earth day 2015

Today I've been working on processing a shoot I had last week with two adorable golden retrievers. This girl here? Daisy? She's 15. And you can bet she reminded me of this little lady. Daisy is slowly going blind (poor girl!) but she still has lots of spirit and was happy to follow me around working for treats and posing for the camera.Also, today is Earth Day. For most of you, it's a day to think about the planet etc etc etc. But for us, it's the anniversary of us adopting Memphis back in 2003, so our thoughts are with that troublemaker and how she stole our hearts for 9 glorious years. For many years, when I thought of that girl I was so sad about how she died or about how much I missed her. And I still miss her. But now remembering her makes me happy. She had so much spirit... grief really does get better over time. I'll be glad when I'm in that same space with Merlin.For your internet shares of the day, watching them turn this space from a hockey arena to a basketball arena was fascinating! Also (thanks Margaret!) I love this site that shows you where to find your shows streaming on the internet. And lastly, this collection of photos for Earth Day are stunning. Go look for yourself.
