Gallivanting Gary liked to roam about
In town.
He refused to let a passing hardship weigh
Him down.
He took his time to get things done.
He rambled on and on.
But once the dinner bell at home was rang
He’d lift his feet
And run.

Oh, I just want to bury my face in Gallivanting Gary’s shaggy coat. ❤ Fun verse and photo.
Shabbat Shalom,

I’ve known some dogs like him. And some people like him, too … 😉

We just spent a couple of days visiting “What’s So Funny” Russell and his charming wife, Connie. But the highlight was getting to meet Liza Jane, a white boxer who loves to play tug-o-war and fetch and fancies herself a lap dog. Miss having a pet.

OHHHHHHHHHHHH … me, too.
I don’t have a pet here in my apartment in NYC, but if I had a house, I’d have a goat. For starters.

And since many dogs, dig … this is a ‘good typo’ … (I totally understood what you’d meant … and I’m fluent in Typoese besides. I ‘have some’ every day …)

Thank you, Shweta! The photo is a lovely photo, and perhaps is of a ‘Gary’ but whatever that pooch’s name, it is a darling one! 🙂
