Farewell to 2011.
I sat down today and realised too many of my friends have passed this year, my good friend Taff in February, Rob in March, Scamp in April and my dear Indy in December. I know many of my flickr friends have lost loved ones too, let's hope 2012 will be a better year for everyone. May your wishes come true.

yes, it definitely was a tough year. R.I.P., my dear Molly and your Indy, and Rob and the others ............. I can't say 2012 looks much brighter, not with wee Duke's failing health. That being said, I still wish you all the best Mike. all the best.

This is one of my all time favs of Indy...
I got this on a post card from Red Bubble with my last order...

One of my favourite photos of Indy...surveying his beautiful green kingdom. I am, (not so secretly hoping) that you will bring another pal into your life! I know from experience that it helps:)
I join with you Mike in hoping that 2012 will be a wonderful year for everyone.

It has been a bad year for losing our loved ones....I lost my Nikki in 2011,but
I also must remember I got my Tasha in 2011. I think the good balances out
the bad if we are lucky:) I think Indy will send you a new pup to raise in his honor
when he feels you are ready.....just keep a open heart,although I know that
may be hard to do right now...(((Hugs)))

Oh, just a beautiful photo of the wonderful Indy. I am definitely hoping 2012 is a better year for all of us. Best wishes for you, Mike!

I think that your relationship with Indy made the most of the beautiful Wales and the love that you felt for one another. I agree with 'jodispayne' saying that Indy will send you a new pup to raise with his guidance and blessing when you are ready Mike.

I am so sorry to hear that Indy has passed away. </3
I know how difficult it is to lose such a special friend.
My dog Molly also suffered from a tumor. :(
You have all my condolences and best wishes.
I may not have known him but thanks to all of your
wonderful photos Indy will always be in my thoughts and heart. <3

Dear Mike, you already know our 2011, can I say that I am happy to see it going away at last.
