This is a nice way to connect with your audience. My wife is going through are old pictures now. I should take a closer look.

Thanks, Frank.  Get ahold of a few of the gems that your wife finds and post them!

Okay, what gives? Is this a make up blog to the pretty little woman? This series is just so touching. Really. How do you turn a wolf into a collie? Let him roll around in a shoebox full of photos. Me? I'm a shark. Got no time for waxing nostalgic. If I stop swimming I drown.

What a lovely montage! It's like I was there with you :)

LOL, Andrew!  I'm sure I did something worthy of an apology, so hopefully this will suffice!

Glad you liked it.

Really enjoying the photo album.  Your wife has a great smile.  I suppose next is a tour through the life of the young couple with the little guys?  I can't wait!

Paul -totally, absolutely, very much so, this is way too cool. Very beautiful and wonderful to get to know a person in another context. Surprise, surprise -Realtors are people:)

Hi Elaine :)

Yep.  The little ones come next!

Hi Faina!  Great to see you enjoying this.  I am long overdue for a trip to your blog, and will be sure to stop by soon.  Thanks for following along with me.

Very cool, Paul. I love dogs too. WE have 4!

Great tune, great photos.  I look forward to your "future Paul" post soon.  :-)

Paul - Okay, it has to be said...you're a nice guy.  I know men don't like to be called nice or cute, but what can I say?  You are just a good man.  Thanks for the Golden Retriever photos, too.  Aren't they just the most lovable creatures God ever put on the planet?  Will I be seeing you at BloodhoundBlog Unchained in May?

Paul- You have a beautiful wife and a wonderful family including your supportive father. You are blessed.

Missy:  Thanks for following all of these.  I am forever a dog guy.  From the day I was born until today, there has not been one day when we didnt have a dog in the family.  Goldens and Labs.

Jason:  That will be a challenge indeed!

Marlene:  Now that is just a plain nice thing to say.  Thank you!  Goldens are definitely right near the top of most lovable creatures.  I can only think of two others that are their match, and they are the subjects of the upcoming parts 4 & 5.  Highly doubt I'll be at Bloodhound because I am not a contributor nor reader.  I spend all of my blogging time here.

Katerina: Everything you say is true, but don't forget my mother!  Probably my single biggest supporter over the years.  Thanks for watching all of these slideshows. 

Hi Paul :)  Just cruising through your life story here....looks like it's been a great ride so far.

Hi Lisa :)  It has been a great ride so far.  Just wait for parts 4 & 5!
