Fwd: 1) back to Grand Rapids '93 or '94: Lola on picnic table & soccer ball (before it was deflated)

my beautiful golden retriever LOLA standing on the picnic table looking eagerly at her soccer ball...she loved that ball SO MUCH..it was flat..so she could get her teeth in it..this may have been before she flattened it..but i took this ball from grand rapids to jackson wyoming to coachella california and los angeles..it stayed with us for years ..and it is even in a photo transcribed on to the memorial stone I had made for her..she is buried at a pet cemetery in calbasas california...where Lassie is also buried

Fwd: 15b) coachella '92-94: golden lola by the pool, she loved to jump in & swim even when I wasn't there
