Katsolo’s photo posting of beautiful Shasta made me think about my own GSD, Henry. He was magnificent and he was my fierce protector. We ran tirelessly together. Once, it was a dark midsummer night, he refused to proceed in the middle of the thick forest when a cacophony of treefrogs suddenly arose from the bottom of an unknown chasm. He forced me to stop, and we simply allowed the ominous sound pierce our being. The air was forbiddingly dense. It once was a land of the Lumbees and their fury was palpable. I thought about God and His grace, His wrath. We loved autumn most of all. The burning orange of the dying leaves reflected on Henry’s back as he trotted. Its wavelike motion reminded me of red sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean, which brutal history of forced voyages still intact in our memory. I thought about God, His grace and His wrath again. We adored the South. Together. Life’s circumstances made us relocate to a prosaic place covered by asphalt, Walmart, nail salons, condominiums, and I painfully recall that Henry was unhappy about it. He missed our forest. The frogs appeared to have vanished from the earth. The colors of autumn leaves no longer danced on his back. He died shortly after the relocation, and I stopped running.

No no Ette, melancholy is not a bad thing! I don’t believe we need to be cheerful all the time, and I’m sure you don’t believe it either. I cherished our conversation last night. I also quite enjoy self pity fest, so please, no worries 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you Tim. Which part of the country do you live? I was reading your biking journal and got very confused!!

Hello Mr Fox. He was not an affectionate dog, he took everything very seriously. He was definitely not for everyone but we bonded at first sight.

It's a lot harder to be inspired to walk in the city, for sure. I'm sorry you lost Henry. Dogs are marvelous companions for us.

I live on about 5 acres but my dog still loves to walk the trails even though he has a whole yard to run in

Just like you Jimmie, he and I used to blast 2Pac while cruising in our old VW and annoyed the hell out of Karens 🤣🤣🤣 My son is still mortified to this day.
