My summer of the Rainbow Bridge

[Catherine]

It really is the summer of the rainbow bridge. Desert Sand "Sandie" has been showing his age for a year. He is much older than I was told when I rehomed him. He died Friday. I feel sad for his mate. She just produced eggs and she was so attached to him.


Sandie is the grey snake. You can see how she has clung to him. I think she knew he was failing.
Sandie was always a gentleman and a very fine snake. He was the star of Big on Bloor street festival a number of years. He did enjoy meeting people. Sandie was one of the prettiest snakes I have ever seen. He is gone now and I hope he has found a happy place across the rainbow bridge.  


I wish I could say this is the last time I will stand at the rainbow bridge this summer, but the guinea pigs I rescued are getting very old. They are shrinking before my eyes. I lives might parallel for a while, but theirs move so much faster.
