Piper has crossed the Rainbow Bridge

The geese were honking, the ducks were quacking, and the first birdsong of spring ushered me down the path to the Arch.

"They're singing for you, Pipey," I muttered aloud. 

Once there the sweet trilling of our feathered friends filled the air as I tearfully scattered the ashes of my sweetpea cat, Piper, at my beloved Acewood Conservation Pond this morning at dawn.

As I began my walk back to my car, I heard the loud squawking of Sandhill cranes.

Spring is here, it seems. Although I had hoped to celebrate its arrival with Piper, I can at least now and forever stroll along the shore and be with her.
