Rose Festival time is approaching in Portland, even though i distance my memories of Portland, i have my cherished memories with my best friend SADDI.
The Budweiser Clydesdale were being housed at Pioneer Square, in the heart of downtown. SADDI and i were taking one of our long walks and even though we were a couple of blocks away from the Square, she could smell them. SADDI never weighed more than 45 pounds, but she was strong. She started nearly running, her nose in the air smelling the horsey's.
When we got to the Square, i picked her up and carried her into the tent were several of the horses were. Gigantic creatures. SADDI had her big beautiful smile, but was frozen in awe as we walked past each horse. She seriously didn't move.
As we exited the tent, SADDI shakes off and comes back into reality. Still smiling, and looking back at where the horses were. We continued in our walk, SADDI with a bit more of a spring in her walk and still smiling.
i miss her so much. This was like a child so excited to see Santa and then when confronted with him, becomes so shy.
