A story you'll love: Tarra and Bella

I defy anyone to NOT feel warm and fuzzy after watching this video. How beautiful! I want to be best friends with Tarra and Bella. :)


(CBS) When elephants retire, many head for the Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tenn. They arrive one by one, but they tend to live out their lives two-by-two.

"Every elephant that comes here searches out someone that she then spends most all of her time with," says sanctuary co-founder Carol Buckley.

It's like having a best girlfriend, Buckley says - "Somebody they can relate to, they have something in common with."

Debbie has Ronnie. Misty can't live without Dulary.

Those are pachyderm-pachyderm pairs. But perhaps the closest friends of all are Tarra and Bella.

Full story w/video (it's worth it) :)

Hi, Lolly :)

I've heard so much about you. Sorry it took me so long to get back here; I'm so busy with Sandra's blog that I neglect to check in here, let alone create new entries. LOL

I look forward to "seeing" you one day soon.
