It’s been three months since my very precious best friend Tasha let me slip off her leash, and ran ahead to wait for me in the clearing to which all of this joy and suffering must lead.  So I have something special for my constant readers:  A short movie of Tasha, eating a cookie on her 15th birthday, August 6.  

She is lying on her blue towel, which she called Binky, surrounded by birthday packages. You’ll hear me wish her Happy Birthday, in a slightly baby-talkish voice, and my folks saying something silly in the background.  Not really sure what.  They didn’t know I was shooting digital video.

If you like this, let me know in Comments.  I have another video – Tasha at her favorite place overlooking the beach, shot later that day.  I could post that too.

I really did – do – love that dog.  She was amazing.
