Piper, Skye & Ripple

 Good day readers.  I hope all is well as we enter the "Holiday Season" here in the USA.  Once upon a time the American traditional Thanksgiving was my absolute favorite holiday.  I don't really have a favorite anymore.  Little known fact outside my social circle; Answerman likes to cook.  I hosted Thanksgiving several times until my Mom wanted to take it back when I was in graduate school a few years ago.  There is always much to be grateful for in the world.  My friends, most of my family....Yes I have one of those families.  Some can't agree to disagree, which is why I like dogs.  Dogs are rarely disagreeable and always grateful.  My all time favorite dog was Piper.  A high energy West Highland Terrier (Westie) that we rescued when he was one and had been in an abusive home. Piper didn't always like me- he had issues with men, because that was who abused him, but we became best buddies.  Piper stayed with us for 14 yea...
