The top photo is spiffing, and you are so lucky to have it, but I also loved the photo of Buster and his Master and your story of them on New Year's Eve.<br /><br />I count myself fortunate to be one of those who has a copy of Jerome K. Jerome's , "Three Men in a Boat - To Say Nothing of the Dog". When my husband was reading it a number of years ago, he would often stop and read me passages along the way. One section in particular brought us both to tears with the giggles! One of those great moments we recall fondly.<br /><br />Montmorency is such a great name for a dog, isn't it?Kat Mortensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877694888419628533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7335697599281687572.post-52488132113578500102012-02-04T08:49:48.101-08:002012-02-04T08:49:48.101-08:00Love that photo of your grandfather and his dog.
