Natalia has been with me for over forty-five years; Jess, over fifty.
Natalia and Jess have been my constant companions. They have accompanied me on journeys around the country and to foreign lands, accruing enough miles to circumnavigate the globe, twice. They’ve been there for every important event of my adult life. When I have needed them, in every instance, they have performed to the best of their ability.
I love them both dearly, and I want nothing for them but the best and fullest that life can offer.
Which is why it’s time for them to go.
