A BITTER SWEET ANNIVERSARY
I have a very bitter sweet anniversary coming up on October 1, the opening day of bird hunting season here in New Hampshire. On that day in 2019 my Lew, Star at age 8 passed after he threw a blood clot from bowel obstruction surgery. Thank goodness in 2017 I had purchased his brother who is six years his junior. I only had him seven years, but they were great memories hunting with him. His younger brother, Cody, is his equal in every respect. When Cody and I hunt on opening day we will dedicate it to Star. Star is the mostly white lew, and Cody is a true tri color.

I remember Star quite well.
