I felt the need to post this separately from my crafty card blog posts. OMGoodness...Hope you all don't mind...this hits close to home as we share our lives with God's creations.
This is a photo of a dear old
friend that Bruce and I have gotten to know very well over this past
year including his brother and sister Santana and Shay.
Bruce did most of the daily
cleaning and release to pasture for these three loving beasts. But we took
Rusty in when Santana and Shay would go riding with owners, Chris and
Jerry on camping trips throughout the summer.
Rusty was 33 years old and rode thousands of miles in his 18+ years with his family. However, as seniors, we have to stay home and take it easy, enjoy the retirement years.
We took him in with our
herd (Dallas and Duncan) so he wouldn't be so lonely when family was
out of town.
We lost a good friend this
weekend but his memory will always live on.
RIP
“Rusty Bucket”
We will
miss YOU!
