It's done.
Rest in peace, old guy. You had a good long run, and we did the best we could by you. You may've been a little aggravating at times, but you were loved. We'll miss you.
It's a cool and cloudy day today, thanks to the lovely rain we had last night. I guess if you've gotta die, today wasn't such a bad day to do it.
We dug him a grave out in the side yard. We told my niece and nephew last night what was going to happen, and they insisted on helping to bury him. The only reason I didn't cry with them while we were digging was because I got my sobbing out at the vet. (I'd expected it to hit a lot harder, but I guess I was more prepared than I thought.)
Afterwards, we found the pictures of him on the digicam's memory cards, and I'm sure physical photos will eventually turn up. For now, I've uploaded what I've got.
I expect this to ambush me unexpectedly over the next few days or weeks - sudden thoughts that he's not here anymore - but for now I'm holding up as well as I can. Thanks, everyone, for your condolences in the previous post. It really helps.
