Rufus
2014 — 2024 · Dog · 10 years together
“Ran everywhere. Loved everyone. Came back when called — mostly.”
Rufus was a red setter with ears that moved independently and a tail that could clear a coffee table. He ran the same loop around the field every morning for ten years, as if checking that the world was still there. It is. Just a little emptier.

The morning loop is still yours. I walk it anyway.
Letters to the future
Some things are easier to say later. Seal a letter for Rufus and choose the day it opens — it stays unread until then, even from this side of the garden.
No letters yet. The first one can be yours — a few lines for a date that does not exist yet.
