Luvluvluv this conversation. They're always great fun. When I saw 'chinook', I thought helicopter. But apparently, they are the official state dog of New Hampshire, and are very people-oriented. Which makes perfect sense, given how wonderful this little chat is! 😎

Wonderful Heidi! I see that over time your interviewing skills have been diminished by the Critters so you are now more sort of their secretary 😂 . In the early days you had a bigger role but clearly you taught them all so well you have been able to take a backseat administrative role these days! ❤️

Thank you, April! As the Critters have gained an audience, so have they gained a greater interest in taking on the role of the interviewer. An interesting dynamic that is sure to continue to unfold. I do plan, however, to continue as the scheduler; otherwise, the writing cadence will revolve around mealtimes across multiple time zones which could get tricky.

Ha ha. Yes of course 😂 mealtimes over multiple time zones could get very messy ❤️

Wow, Bec is a superman - big boss, chief inspector, and super eco-enthusiast. Jasper’s tender look is so heart warming..

Arya and I love the name Bec. Arya, who also knows French, says bec also means beak. You can see why he loves the name. Safe travels and happy reunion.

Thank you Perry & Arya! Part of Bec’s Hooman family is of French-Canadian descent. His name honors their ancestry. Bec also has a deep deep appreciation for multiple meanings of the name and feels a kinship with Arya.:)

Wonderful post from the archives Heidi. Nice to learn about some friends and companions waiting on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge as well. Thanks for sharing and safe travels!
