Boomer’s beginning
It was 2002, and I was back home in northwest PA for hunting season. I called my wife back in Michigan to let her know that I had arrived safe and sound. She told me about this dog that she had heard about from our friends back home while I was traveling. She had always wanted a Sheltie, and there was supposed to be a puppy in my home town available for free. The last thing I felt we needed was a third dog, but we do these things for the ones we love. So, I called the family and made arrangements to see the dog at the end of my hunting trip.

The Decision
She paused and took a deep breath, suppressing the tears that were trying to well up. After she wiped the sweat from her brow, she grabbed the shovel and continued to fill in the grave. Her mind was struggling with the decision that was in front of her, return to the life she thought she had left far behind or head off in a different direction. The years of counseling kept urging her to take the different path, but the pain and anger was screaming to return to that life. Whatever she decided, it had to take her away from here.
