Groucho...

Sad news to record... Groucho is no longer with us. He had been having some stomach problems and stopped eating.... Miles and I took him to the vet on Saturday and well.. He had a problem with his intestines that we just couldn't do anything to fix. It was hard to handle with Miles and Kate trying to explain that Groucho had died and is now "up in heaven" we guess... Playing around in the green green grass... Almost 2 weeks later now and Kate will still go to the back window and look out and say "where's Groucho ?" in her own inquisitive 2 year old way...Makes me sad and happy that she cares about him... We'll all miss him in our own ways.

I had lots of help loading up the kayak for our trip home over the 4th (Back to visit Grandparents in Aurelia and Storm Lake). Soon enough I see I'm going to have some young adventurers!!
