Thanks to The Honest Kitchen for being our dog food sponsor!  They'll be providing Hudson and Murphy's meals.  It's 100% human-grade and produced at an FDA approved facility.  Their food is perfect for our needs, prepared fresh and raw and then dehydrated so all that is needed is to add water and voila, gourmet cuisine back country style!

   


Princeton Tec

Whole Earth Provision generously donated a backpack for our journey. But they didn't just donate any "backpack". This is the 'James Bond Aston Martin' of packs: the Osprey.  "Q" himself could've designed it.  It has secret compartments and even after four weeks, I'm still finding new stuff.

   


Everlasting Memories
  This wonderful company gave me a cremation necklace to carry Malcolm's ashes with us.  It's quite lovely, a sterling silver hollow ring called the Eternity Keepsake.  Thank you so much to the proprietors, Messrs. Doran and Jurasek. 

   


For Traveling Tails, I just can't say enough about Dr. Tommack.  She was Malcolm's vet years ago before I left for Boston and it seems fate re-connected us.  She has this hip unit she drives right up to your curb but now that we're heading back home, I somehow have to convince her to travel up to Boston... or start a franchise.
