>> Hi Bob,
>> Wow! That's a long time between dogs.  I did go 8 years between dogs -
>> mainly because I was doing things where I didn't need a dog and I also
>> worked in a kitchen and had no place to put the dog during work hours.
>> I grew up in New England so I know what it is like (smile!).  I've lived
>> here in California for the last 20 years - still shorter than my New
>> England years!  Where in New England are you?  I lived in Connecticut,
>> Massachusetts, and Vermont.  I still have lots of family and friends
>> there.
>>
>> Cheers,
>>
>> Linda and Landon
