In Memoriam


The biped and I are both in mourning. We heard today that Atticus, Mitch's Golden Retriever, passed away. I know I've said some unkind things about Golden Retriever's in the past, but Atticus was different. He scared me, of course, in the beginning, but he's so big and I'm so small. But he was always friendly and warm, ready to nuzzle the biped's hand or just hang out. We will both miss him very much and Provincetown is the less for his passing. Farewell, old friend. I'll meet you on the other side.




Here's a movie from last summer where Atticus makes a brief appearance. I'm glad I held on to it.

Who?

My photo
Provincetown, Massachusetts, United States
I am a California native transplanted to the East Coast and have grown to accept both the snowy weather of winter and the hard-bitten attitudes of New Englanders. Since I moved here in October of 2006, I think I've become something of a native, although the locals will always call me a "bark-ashore". If you have any questions, just ask!
