A year ago at Chessie Fun Day time I asked my friend Nichole Alred if she could take some photos of Gambler and I as I had this feeling he wasn’t going to be with me very long. I’ve been saving these photos until the time came to say goodbye. I had almost a year with him and we had so many good days and fun times. I’m glad last April wasn’t the end.

This is my most treasured spot. It’s where I go to feel close to my mom and dad, gpa and gma along with many animals. We all end up here at Bradley Branches.
