Milo's Birthday

 

Two years ago, My brother-in-law came to visit us with his pregnant dog.  While here, she had her puppies.  Milo was born, outside, in the cold, on Feb. 16, 2004.  We fell in love with him. We had no idea how big he was going to be when he grew up, but we really didn't care.

The BIL moved on with his dog.  Milo stayed here with us.  Although he officially belongs to my son Mike, he is my constant companion.  He warns us of any bears in the area.  He sits at attention as I raise the American Flag at the school house.  I still can't get him to help me fold it at the end of the day. 

Please join me in wishing Milo a Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to Milo!!!!  While I have never met you Milo, you sound like a great dog!  You take good care of your people and they love you for it.  Now, go find a flower and ask David to sing Hank Williams, Jr. songs.  He can tell you the story.

I'm really late commenting on this, David, but happy birthday Milo! He is such a good looking dog. I love the picture of him in the snow. I don't know how I got you off of alerts; but I put you back on them and hope AOL doesn't mess anything up.

Hope you are doing well. 60 degrees today forecasted for Billings. Such a weird year.

Tonight I'm playing around on my new toy.  Needless to say I'm a true beginner.  I will probably never find you again, Milo.
Having a computer keeps me occupied, and it saves me money.  I don't go to the Casino's in Black Hawk and Central City, Co. like I use to.
I have lived in the Denver area since 1971.  I worked at Joslin's Dept Store in Lakewood, for over 24 years.
Until tonight I had never heard of Sunshine, Colorado.  You are practically my neighbor.
You are a cutie Milo. and I would love to have you for a pen pal.  I hope you have loads of fun on your birthday.
Happy Birthday,
