My writer friend DL lost their family's Sophie this week, and they wrote the most moving and FUNNY eulogy. I love this last line so much: "In lieu of flowers, the family requests you go outside and give a good sniff to your friends and loved ones." Hug-laugh-sob.
Out in the world, my NYC friends are posting apocalyptic air quality pictures, and even we had hazy skies and an angry red sun long after sunrise this morning . It's only June and already wildfires are shifting into the 'uncontrollable' category.

Goslings are so cute.
We had a cat long ago who recognized packing for what it was and would always freak out. The last two have been pretty oblivious to it.
Fuzzy.
The fires have settled down here - but for how long? It's been really hot and dry, which is super unusual for June.
The suitcases! Barkley used to just get into a panic when the "orange suitcases of sadness" as we called them would be brought upstairs. He'd follow us around and lie beside the suitcases, etc. Even when it was a road trip and he was going with us!
The bit about luggage made me laugh. Our dog has no idea what suitcases mean (I think she's just inexperienced because we haven't traveled much since we adopted her with COVID and all, but it's also possible she's just not very smart), but the cat. THE CAT! She gets so grumpy and hides from us and then sits on the suitcases and meows loudly. She not dumb. Pets are funny.
Love the pets and luggage stories! They have such personalities!!
