   Grandpa Gerald thinks Boomer is also smart because of his intellectual gaze and his deferrential treatment. Just look in his eyes! Boomer inspires much of the dog poetry written by his Grandfather, Gerald.  These pictures are three years old and awaiting updates.
    All of my grandchildren patronize facebook, and are quite visible.  Boomer expects me to get him situated there, too.
