#8+years

I was pleasantly surprised to find a very similar photo; I took the top one two weeks ago (on Halloween) and the bottom one in June 2017. Besides the eight years and about four months difference, the best way to see the difference between the photos is by the branch of the fir tree that slopes downwards towards the water.

Jeep is now 8 years old. No birthday hat, no balloons, no big crazed party ... he dislikes all the folderol. He got his favourite treats, a nice big chewy, and the peace and quiet he desires. Jeep is a very silly and yet dignified Zoizoi, full of love and a sincere dislike of unnecessary shenanigans.

Chewies, sunshine to soak in, lots of lovin's and two tablespoons of coffee over his morning kibble ... those are his Candle Wishes and he will get them all forever.
