I know.

My throat still feels achy from trying not to cry.

These videos remind me of something I once read:

“Ancient Roman heroes were given triumphant parades upon their return, the Vikings had huge bonfires to welcome them home, and penant winning New York Yankees were cheered with ticker-tape parades.”

“We have dogs.”

I know I had a tear in my eye watching these.

I remember well the day I got home in 1946 and I saw my
sixteen year old border collie asleep in the yard and I called his name softly and he jumped up and bounded over
to me like puppy.

Thanks. Can’t have too many dogs!

[InvisibleChurch]

btw it doesn’t seem to bother the mgt that there are five other dog threads so it shouldn’t bug anyone else
