June 14, the day before we depart on the great adventure was a busy and sad day. Maureen stayed with Beth while went I to work ,finished a few last minute details, double checked the RV and did some last minute packing. Tim installed a Sirius radio which will help a lot on the trip and Katie, Jim, and Taylor were at the house, living there while we are gone.
To make a long story short, our dog Brickley, who was 16 years old, we had to put to sleep. She had been getting consistantly worse and could not even walk up or down one step to go outside. We didn't want the kids to have to do it while we were gone and Katie and Jim voluntered to take her becasue I was busy and other reasons I don't want to go into.
She was a great dog, a member of the family at home and at the farm. She had a great life and we miss her.
