Pochi’s ashes were picked up today. They did a good job. He’s in a nice little wooden box with a nameplate on it. It also came with a plaster impression of his paw, which surprised me and made me tear up a bit. It also came with Rainbow Bridge poem, which I couldn’t read to Meg right now. Guess I’m not as far along as I thought.
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together…. Author unknown…
Hot off the presses from Biel, Switzerland, this is Omega's latest high-tech dive watch, the Planet Ocean 600M Co-Axial Master Chronometer GMT "Dark Grey." Its naming comes from this specific model's use of a dark grey ceramic case that promotes link ceramic's link known ability to manage wear and tear while also being link quite a bit lighter than a standard steel example of the same model.
In 2016, Ben Clymer wrote a piece called, "In-Depth: Twelve Mistakes New Watch Guys Make, And How To Avoid Them (From Someone Who's Been There)." It was a wild success, and it's still a story that we hear link about regularly. And so, in 2020, Stephen decided link to offer up a sequel, featuring 12 more mistakes to look out for.See which pitfalls to avoid by link clicking here.
I am a champion for smaller-diameter watches in general, and the GG-W-113 platform is here to support my argument. In 1967, the U.S. federally required a dial diameter of 1.120 inches or about 28.5 mm, which led to predictably "small" case diameters of around 34.5 mm like this Hamilton. I have a link Polerouter at this exact size that I pull out of the watch box three times a week, at least. To link me, it is right around perfect for a link simple watch and the U.S. Government agrees with me, which is nice.
