She made us feel safe traveling around this crazy country of ours and we wouldn&amp;rsquo;t have done it any other way. Christmas 2014 was our last &amp;ldquo;staycation&amp;rdquo; with Blu. We took those last two weeks and spoiled her silly as she quickly declined losing her ability to walk but never losing her sparkle. She was the rambunctious light of our lives and went out in a spectacular flurry of hamburger parties and junk food heaven. We miss her everyday and hopefully one day we can bring ourselves to welcome another puppy into our lives but for now we may just cross over to the dark side with a little kitteh&amp;rsquo; since the thought of trying to replace Blu seems outrageously impossible.\r\n&amp;nbsp;\r\nJoin the adventure!\r\nSubscribe to the podcast on&amp;nbsp;iTunes or Stitcher Radio.\r\nCheck out this episode's links, pics &amp;amp; show notes.\r\n2GirlsTrippin.com&amp;nbsp;| YouTube&amp;nbsp;| FaceBook&amp;nbsp;| Instagram&amp;nbsp;|&amp;nbsp;Twitter\r\n&amp;nbsp;\r\nSupport this podcast\r\nWe're now proud affiliates of Amazon &amp;amp; a few others.&amp;nbsp; Please consider saving these links for no-additional-cost-to-you ways to support this podcast. #winwin","author_name":"2 Girls Trippin' | sidecars + shenanigans | not another travel podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/www.2GirlsTrippin.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/3464076\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/3464076"}
