Dale, the dog, died. She had been wan and weary these last few weeks and finally stopped eating. This morning she slipped away. I will bury her next to Roy and Lily in the back fields of Roysdale.

Hi Murray. Do you remember me? I am Dale the dog from nez and Vic’s house. I use to live with Roy but he died. I remember you from the times when you stayed here or when you came over and had dinner and hung around. I like you. I don’t know if I will ever get to...

I finally got my room straight and got the toys you sent me from Nez's Spring Tour all arranged. I know you meant well but I wanted a jet. A real jet. Sometimes Nez will take me on a jet ride -- but it's been years. Anyway I do like the toys a lot. If I ever get a jet I will take them all with me wherever I may go. Stinks and Buck and the girls haven't seen the toys yet. Neither have the Bobcats, the Crows or the Woodpeckers. I don't think I will show the toys to any of them for a while. Especially not the squirrels. Ever since "Up" they just priss around like they are really important. Hard to live with, frankly. No, I will keep them to myself for now. Something nice about snuggling up with toys that don't smell like anybody else. I have to go now I am so busy. Busy. Busy. Busy. A dog's life is never done. Thanks again. Dale

Michaels FB post about Dale ( Toots)

Notes from the Road. There are concrete deer outside the hotel. They stand like statues and never move a muscle. They are concrete -- or some other stone material. I think of Buck and Stinks and Toots and miss them. Toots gave me a goodbye kiss that is with me still. No one saw. I was a touch embarrassed. Toots knew. She did a two wave kiss then stopped a beat and did a third wave. These waves are like the ocean that names them -- like a pulse or a heartbeat. It is when I can feel the closeness. The presence of the power -- standing on shore and feeling the waves. It is surfer catnip -- surfernip. After a song there is the applause that is recompense. Then a slight fall and a moment where the applause can roll to a stop or rekindle and become another wave -- another wave of applause that is affection and then perhaps there is another that is pure acknowledgement -- or maybe the third is recognition. The third wave is the sweetest. That is the wave of connection. It's the wave Sally Fields was trying to give back when she said "You like me. I mean you really like me. You really do". Words to that effect. I knew what she was swinging for and I thought she was great to try it. I did not like her being ridiculed for it. In fact that was the day she captured me. Without the third wave life feels incomplete. I have actually seen waves four and five -- indescribable -- then of course there is electricity which does not come in waves -- it is binary --on then off after a specified time. Like a buzzer. That really is a cheer -- a cheer mostly heard in sports. "Gooooooooaaaaallll!!!!!!!" That is electricity. But the waves are closeness and friendship and true appreciation. I wrote here once about the way dogs kiss their owners and opined that the only experience like it was -- sometimes -- when a woman kisses a man. When Toots gave me a three wave kiss goodbye it made me feel so good I cried. The first wave was "Goodbye I love you and I will miss you and have a good time" Just like that -- in quotes. She licked my nose and face and stood up on her hind legs to reach. The second was I really will miss you so much -- I'm only a dog I know but I have feelings too and missing someone is hard because I love you so much. She licked my face faster and I bent down so she could reach me. The third wave was almost silent -- I am with and will hold you in my heart and never let you go whatever happens -- I love you that much. I rubbed her ears and kissed her forehead and scratched her neck. Full, complete, farewell, connect -- so it made me cry. I wasn't going to tell anyone. But it was so deep and sweet and loving that I told the concrete deer here at the hotel -- but obviously they did not respond. They are not real. So I am telling FB. Tonight -- Canyon Club -- Agoura Hills on the outskirts of LA. We converge. We play. We move on. See you in the show.
