A photo isn’t always about some lost moment . . .

I have to wonder if the person who mowed this lawn used GPS to get the lines so perfectly straight and perpendicular?

June 23, 2016

By Scott Shephard

There is much that I could say about our cat Mac, who came into our home from the Humane Society 16 years ago. Instead, I will simply say that we put him to sleep today as an act of mercy and love.

He was really Deb's cat - I always thought of myself as a dog person. Slowly but surely, though, Mac turned me into a cat lover. Each night he cuddled against me as I went to sleep and each morning he purposefully led me to the cabinet in my den so he could enjoy his cat treat. Today it was Friskies Party Mix Crunch.

I wonder how many nights and how many mornings it will take before I quit expecting to see our good and loyal friend Mac?
