Well, I'm in New jersey and writing this as my new guide sleeps in a ball beside me. She's an absolutely adorable little black lab named Reva, and so far we're settling in well. I still have inevitable moments where I miss McClure, and those are occasionally compounded by the fact that Reva is different from him in nearly every way...But she's a super sweet girl that I know will steal my heart and that shows great promise to be a wonderful guide!!

I'm so sorry I can't post a picture; my problems with photobucket continue and I can't seem to upload anything on my own anymore. If someone wants to post it for me, by all means let me know!

Edit: thanks so much to Marianna for posting this picture forme (see comments below).
