Hi Mariea,
Welcome. I won't introduce myself since you know me. 
I am glad Valient is doing well.
Work keeps me busy , Lions and Organ donors so I don't have a chance to post here very often.
Last week Anna and I walked in the St. Patty's Day parade with our Lions club. I walked with one of my fellow lions and he told me when to stop , walk and if Anna and i were vering to the left or right. It fun but the stop and go is hard. We had two puppy walker friends join us with there dogs who were released. We had a big lion in a wagon. We had he GDF Banner and Vet dog Banner too. There were so many bag pipes so I am glad Anna isn't bothered by noise.
Marilyn and Anna
