Angel At The Bridge

July 8, 2020 by Ogee

There is a saying: “Wait for them at the bridge.” It is usually refers to a dog waiting for its faithful human companion(s) at the Rainbow Bridge, where dogs go—just this side of heaven—to run free and play, restored, until they can cross the bridge together with their human again.

The Real Things Remain

April 8, 2018 by Ogee
