<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I am so glad you are getting wheels and it is ok
that you won't be meeting Racer,a number of bassets are stepping up to the plate
to show Racer around and introduce her to everyone.I'm very grateful for
that.There are some her age who went to the bridge far too young like
Quigley,and there are the older ones who are like grandmas and grandpaws to
her.She will like to watch the bassets that finally see their human
loved ones coming to collect them, I'm sure she will feel the love
emitting from them all. She is missed though.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
