Hi Carl and Suzanne,

I’m so happy to finally be getting to meet you. I didn’t realize when we first spoke that you are the Suzanne that’s all over Lois’ Facebook. I feel like I sort of know you!

I’ve been leaving the details of our meeting up to Anja, but I wanted you to know that I’m still here and involved. There’s a small park in Madisonville, TN that I think will be a good spot for us. We’re looking for somewhere off the beaten path but close to the shelter since I guess there’s some paperwork that will need to be completed there. The address I have is 404 Circle Street, Madisonville, TN 37354. The written directions are so much harder to understand than the actual trip, so we may arrange to meet somewhere else and drive to the park. I used to teach some dog training classes there but that was years ago, so I’m going to scope it out tomorrow to be sure it’s still a good spot. As it was before, there was a covered pavilion with picnic tables and benches. I’ll have a folding lawn chair for you Carl, if you’d be more comfortable in that.

Anja will be in touch with a final destination for your navigator, but I can meet you just about anywhere and get you there. Will you be able to check emails as you travel? If not, texting is fine.

I look forward to meeting you both. Hope you won’t mind lots of photos – everyone has been praying for Belle to find the perfect forever home.

Safe travel and blessings,

Claire
