Jack’s on vacation in Florida right now, and he posted this wonderful picture on Facebook this morning.


“Years ago Sue and I scoped out dog-friendly beaches in FL and then found a small place nearby. Thanks to PetAirways and AirTran, my dogs are in FL with me for the week. This morning I started reading Dean Koontz’s “A Big Little Life”. The book is about his retired Canine Companions for Independence dog – Dean and I are both big supporters of CCI!”

You could find me on the couch in our house doing the same thing  a lotta times, and I’ve often said “This is as good as life gets.” when I’ve been doing it.  Yeah, I guess I’m just a boring guy, but, you know, that statement is still true, especially in light of so much of what goes on daily in the world.
