- my 3 Goldens all died within a 10 month Period. We got them all as rescues at around 7 months old each. They lived to ages 13,14, and 16. They were all great dogs and will live in my heart forever.
- I was hospitalized for 2 months, now I'm OK.
- our new house currently being built will include a 4 car heated man cave
- This year will be better, I retired and at age 56. I now have time to drive the Porsche I have lots of projects lined up for my 993C4S for next winter including an engine drop to replace some weeping timing chain covers. I have only driven it @ 400 miles a year for the past 5 years - simply no time due to work demands. It is a well maintained near flawless sub 30K non trailer queen.
The new "monster" is Baxter who just turned 6 months old who is waiting for his 1st ride in the 993. The other dogs were very well trained and car friendly. Baxter still needs a little more work

The dog never rides in the coupes front seat, never. Although occasionally with rear seat backs down, rides spread across in the back deck. The clear aesthetic rear window film by Huper Optik greatly reduces heat-/-solar gain; dog is all smiles.
