I'm working on retiring. It can't come soon enough!

I hear ya but I have a few years left before I can

Well we had 4 dogs but now we have 3. The oldest died while we were at work. I have to go dig a hole in the backyard and bury her. She lived a long good life and passed away at 16 people years. Not sure what that equals to in dog years.

Hey, a little WD 40 & you're good to go.

We thought she was passing 2 years ago so we got another rescue that nobody wanted just like our other dogs. After she saw the puppy she perked right up and was playing again. Dogs are great pets and it’s always hard losing one. Took me almost 2 hours to dig in the red clay but she’s at rest now

You were wondering how old in human years, they used to say 7 to 1 but now they're saying it depends on the size of the dog, not sure what size she was, but here's a chart they use now-a-days.

I'am very sorry for your loss. Pets are family.

Good afternoon crew!

CreekSide, very sorry to hear about the loss of your dog. I have had to put down too many of my furry family members during my lifetime. It is always a heartbreaker. My deep condolences to you and yours.

Pets are special and we know you will miss yours. It's sad we outlive so many of our best friends.

Hal Needham (the director) asked Jerry Reed to whip up the movie's theme song. A couple of hours later, Reed played him "East Bound and Down." Thinking it missed the mark, Reed offered to rework it. Needham's response? "If you change one note, I'll kill you!" It became one of Reed’s biggest hits.
Jackie Gleason’s café scene with Burt Reynolds wasn’t in the script; it was Gleason's idea. Most of Buford T. Justice's lines? Completely improvised. He also suggested adding the Junior character, saying, "I can't be in the car by myself."
Buford T. Justice was a real-life Florida Highway Patrolman known to Burt Reynolds' dad, who was once Chief of Police in Jupiter, Florida.
Smokey and the Bandit was 1977’s second-highest-grossing film, right behind Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope.
Initially, Jerry Reed was supposed to play the Bandit. But when Burt Reynolds heard about the project, he asked for the role, and Reed got recast as the Snowman.
The movie made the Pontiac Trans Am a sensation. Sales skyrocketed from 68,745 units in 1977 to 93,341 in 1978. A year later, 117,108 Trans Ams were sold.
Burt Reynolds picked Fred, Snowman's stubborn pet basset hound, because he didn’t follow orders.
In the film, Jerry Reed sings "Bandit you're reckless and you live much too hard" and then jokes, "I oughta be in Nashville," a wink at his country music career.
Sally Field revealed there was no formal script; the movie was mostly ad-libbed.
The film sparked a CB radio craze, turning it into a favorite pastime for drivers.

I'm sorry to hear of her passing 😔
Many folks plant something on top of the sites to remember their love.
May the roots grow strong from her strength.

First 14 leaving the field.
That ground is hard, I can get a pitch fork to stand up hardly.
