Darn, I just got a phone call from my sister up north. It seems that their dog got injured during an elk hunt earlier today and had to be sent on into dog heaven. My sister and nieces are of course unconsolable. God how I loved that dog. Apart from being a virtual hunting machine in the woods, when around people she was one of the most social and kind dogs I've ever met.

May you rest in peace Isa. [:(]

Picture of from last years spring, when she had had her last litter of puppies that I used to show you pictures of.

Do anyone have that "rainbow bridge" text? Thought I might pass it on to my sister.

Sorry to hear that, Per...[:(]

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

We are all dreams of the Giant Space Butterfly.

Dixie's next AAR update should be a good read. He might be crying as he writes it though. Shame I can't read it! [:'(]
No-unfortunately he didn't go all wobbly and teary. Stiff upper lip and all that. Damnable British pluck! [;)][:@]

You have to be very careful with allied CVs before the 4/42 upgrades, because poor AA, ASW and experience mean you are shockingly vulnerable. Always operate with your tfs in the same hex to increase CAP and never put more than one CV in a tf. I got caught out in another game because I had not changed my threat acceptance settings and my CVs sat in a hex and let the KB chew them up because a CL was in the path of the intended retreat and the air combat tfs would not advance toward it.

Goodness, what a run-on sentence. From a Brit too. [:-]

Sorry to hear the news, Per. She was a beautiful dog and her pups were little heavenly bundles.

Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way. We cherish memory as the only certain immortality,never fully understanding the necessary plan."
