Hi Sandy,

We had a wonderful visit with you and the pups this morning!  HazMat is just ADOOOOORABLE!!  I think he very much has the right personality to be a world traveller and hopefully a therapy dog some day.  I may have mentioned that his first trip will be to State College on Oct. 2-4 when Penn State has Parents' Weekend out there.  I have scoped out a Bed&Breakfast where they are excited to watch him grow over the next four years while Camille goes to school there.  Also, there are some parts of the otherwise hostile Jersey shore that will allow dogs in the Fall, so I think we will have ourselves a beach weekend.

I thought you might get a kick out of the pictures of the proud parents.  Diesel is so funny, he went belly up as soon as Camille started petting him.  And Willow draped herself across my lap.  This must mean that they approve of us as the new set of parents for one of their babies......

We were once again so impressed with your home and your environment for the dogs.  We are so glad you came into our lives!  We promise to make you proud as HazMat's new parents!

See you in --a painfully long!!-- three weeks!!
