I just posted some vacation pictures, and was going to include Ben’s vacation pictures on there but I just had so many they deserved an entry unto themselves. I watched Marley and Me on vacation, and it made me want to especially nostalgic about the sweet time we had with my yellow man, my first baby. I’m afraid he’s not getting any younger (he’s 12), though he hiked and swam like a champ on vacation. Whenever we went to
the beach, he made a point of lying down in the water like a water buffalo, and of guarding the kids playing in the sand. He’s totally white around the face now, and has various lumps and bumps and is pretty much deaf now. I even have to point to where food drops if he’s not looking now.
