Almost Home

I promised everyone I would be blogging this week about Hudson and Murphy and Mr. Luke and the fact that the end of their journey is almost upon us.    They are almost "home", after over two years and over 2000 miles of long hard walking.

Now that I am faced with the daunting fact that the Journey has almost ended, I really don't know where to start with my Blogging.

There are so many things to say, so many things to remember, so many hills got climbed and so many valleys got slipped into.  When they take that final step into Boston, will we all look around and say "is that it?"    "Are we done now".

Luke and the Boys  But no, this journey that was begun so long ago, is really only a beginning.  I know that there will be lots of great things still to come and there is much work for us all to do if we are to make this trip across so many miles stand forever as an example of what one man and two brave dogs can do to help millions.


For tonight I am just going to ask everyone to think about what all of this means to each and everyone of us.     We lost our beloved Princess Daisy to cancer and she was the very first Cover Dog on the 2009 Cancer Can't Keep a Good Dog Down Calendar.     

Let's all do some thinking tonight about everything that Mr. Luke and Hudson and Murphy have done for pets everywhere.     Thoughts are being thought by men who will be able to find a cause and a cure for this horrible disease, and those doctors and researchers have started down a path because they were asked to do this by one brave man and two brave dogs.   

Let's all go to sleep tonight with glorious dreams in our heads and lots of love in our hearts.   And when we wake up tomorrow morning, Mr. Luke and DaBoys will be one step closer to the final mile and ready to start their new journey   (after a brief and well earned rest).

Love and Licks

Bob
......... thinking tonight about every single name on that Memorial Shirt

    We think this is a great tribute to Mr. Luke, Ms. Daisy, and all the little doggies all over the world. Let's hope they find a cure for cancer soon. I am a lung cancer survivor, but it hurts me more to see an animal suffering from this dreaded disease.
