For the past 10 years I have been featuring Benny the dog on our annual holiday card. As most of you know, Benny crossed that rainbow bridge two months ago. As a farewell tribute to my little guy I decided to feature him one last time. After pouring through hundreds of photos of him I chose one as I like to remember him best – happy, healthy and living the good life. Enjoy some of the other cards that highlighted Benny’s good nature through the years. He was a very good boy. Carpe diem and Happy Holidays to one and all.

Another amazing visit to the Toledo Zoo to see good friends and have mini-reunions. Got to see my first Tasmanian Devil, their adorable baby orangutan, juvenile yaks and reindeer, young camels, hungry sloths, got to touch an octopus and see their beautiful display of holiday lights. Sheer delight was had by being able to hold their young Eurasian Eagle Owl, named Loup, on my arm. Very, very cool. Thanks everyone – I’ll be back.

Thanksgiving is all about food, fun, family, friends and giving thanks. I am thankful for the opportunity each day to have incredible, beautiful creatures in my life and to be able to share their uniqueness through my photos. Thank you for looking at my photo montage each week and thank you for your feedback. Madison the elder cat, the amazing two year old kittens, Audrey and Roberta and I wish you all a very warm, healthy and safe Thanksgiving. This is the first Thanksgiving in 10 years without our adorable Benny the dog . I give thanks for those 10 years that we had with him.

A midweek trip south to the Philadelphia Zoo was well worth the two hour drive. We had the zoo mostly to ourselves and all of the animals were awake and active. The Philadelphia Zoo never disappoints.

A recent visit to New England to see good friends brought us to the nearby Stone Zoo. A wonderful zoo surprise was seeing a five day old colobus monkey clinging to its mother. The donations to the Binky Foundation in Benny the dog’s memory keep on coming. Thanking you all so much for remembering my sweet little guy in this way.

My annual fall trip to see good friends in New England always includes a visit to Southwick’s Zoo . The autumn leaves, the chilly air and their wonderful collection made for a memorable visit.
Please visit the Binky Foundation’s site today to see the thoughtful and sweet Remembrance for my dear Benny the dog. Thank you to those that contributed to the site in his memory. Your generosity and kindness in remembering him with a donation to his (and my)
favorite animal foundation warmed my heart. He was a very good boy.
