Remember when???????

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Remember When Lovers? I just had to go back in time. My Dad used to walk the kids every day. So much so that a local paper reporter took his picture! This was back in 2005. Grandpa walked the kids every day. Like clock work!

It is so sad. My Dad cannot walk the kids anymore. They are all the worst for it. This is the worst part of getting old for my Dad. He laments over it constantly.

It really is hell getting old. Not only for the elderly but for the others that depended on them. Grandpas are so dependable! He still is. Just not in the walking capacity.

More depending on Grandpa later…Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

    It’s a tough one. I can’t imagine not being able to go out with the woofs. It would distress me immensely.

    My very best wishes to your father. What a lovely picture!

    This is very sad, but I am sure that your father spends quality time with the Mayor and Our Emma, and the children get some wonderful pets and lovin in the process.

    Thats so sad. I bet Mayor Chaps and Queen Emma give quality time to Grandpas. Letting him pet and ooze loads of love upon them.
