Hello out there! Well, I've been "off track" for a bit because our 16 year old companion and friend got seriously sick! Our black lab was suddenly quite ill and after many days of hoping things would turn around we realized it was her time to go. She left us this morning and we are all feeling quite sad. Abby was a great dog and gave the entire family her unconditional love and kisses whenever any one of us needed them and so we sent her off with ours. She was a blessing to our family and will be sorely missed by all of us.

That said, I will be getting back on track and do have some news! I will be part of a committee reviewing the blue prints/plans for a new shelter to be started this year by the Community Action Committee of the Lehigh Valley. Very exciting! My goal for next week is to go over the work plans for the other two shelters they have in operation (My last post looked at their Sixth Street Shelter) and make an appointment with the director to go see at least one of them. Marsha Eichelberger is the program director and has offered to meet with me and show me around. So....time to get moving again!

Again, any suggestion, contacts, please email me!!!
