Well, I guess since I remembered about the race this time I should put in some pics, not that I forgot about the Gators, just that I was see keyed up about going I forgot to post my pics. Here's this weeks.

Tommy Johnson (he's gotta get back into it)

EDIT: That should be PICKS not PICS as I did not post any PICS along with my choices. It was late...

Sad news in the Thomas household today

Paija, my 15 year old Chow/ SharPei mix, responsible for helping me make my PTW selections last year (much to Ghio's dismay), passed in her sleep today.

It is more difficult to deal with because I am on the road (and have been, as some of you know, for a while now), but she has been in the wonderful care of my great neighbors and she has had run of the house and all the best comforts (I remember when my ex gave me $hit for buying the air conditioner for the pup's room in the house). She was a big fan of the grounds around Southwestern Int'l. Raceway, where there wasn't a jackrabbit that she wasn't down for a sprint through the desert with.

She will be creamated tomorrow, and a portion of her ashes will be spread at the fairgrounds near the track, where she had her best "dog days". She was a great dog and a wonderful friend, and will be missed.

Martin,

This must really have been tough. Its a shame dogs have such a short life and 15 years is actually pretty good for a medium to large size dog. I know being on the road and having to leave your dog alone for weeks on end has to have been tough on you and your beloved companion, Paija. My wife and I worry about our dog being alone all day so one of us runs home from work every day at lunch time to let her out and feed her and give her some company for at least 15-30 min. We know what it can be like for all those pets home alone. Hang in there....we feel for ya.

Thanks for the kind sentiments Kurt.. I'm pretty sure that it's gonna hit hard when the tour ends and I finally get home. Thank goodness for the amazing neighbors I have that have taken care of all the details.

Good luck on your picks this week, and if you ever make it back for Homecoming, let me know- Tucson is a great place
