No More Help From the Police

They said that they have rollover numbers so there is no way to track the original number which seems like bull to me. I mean, what if someone called in saying they were going to kill people, they can't have an entirely anonymous caller base.

Two Months

Today, it has been two months since Ricochet has been missing. Two months. It seems so surreal. It seems like just yesterday, and years ago all at the same time. I see him everywhere and in everything, but sometimes, I can’t seem to remember what he looks like. How is it that something can be so vivid, yet so hazy at the same time?

Summer Camp Started Today

Today is the last day of the first week of summer camp here at the farm. Not sure I’m ready for the next six weeks. The campers keep asking about Ricochet. They keep telling me how much they miss him, “if Riki was here he would do this, if Riki was here he would do that.”. It’s exhausting.

I’m babysitting a Jack Russell for a friend of mine. He is a similar color to Riki and he has the same broken coat. The kids keep accidentally calling him Ricochet. It is difficult having the kids telling me how much they miss him. I’m trying really hard to be strong for them. I tell them that we are going to get him back. He will probably be home soon. I believe it too. Riki and I have a very special bond. He is my boy. I know that we were meant to be together, for some reason Ricochet was meant to be my dog. We are supposed to be together and I know, we will.

A Holiday Without Riki

Yesterday I came up to the bay for the 4th of July. We went to the bay, did the whole drinks, fireworks, swimming, jet ski, the whole deal. There were a bunch of kids playing on the beach, a parade of golf carts dressed up in red, white and blue. It would have been perfect, although I had a difficult time enjoying it. Everything I did made me think about Ricochet and all the fun he would be having if he was here with me. When I was swimming in the bay I could almost see him dressed up in his little blue life vest and goggles swimming along next to me. Laying in the sun, there he was rolled over on his back soaking up the rays on his belly, his little legs up in the air, his tongue hanging out the side of his mouth in that silly grin he gets on his face when he is happy and relaxed. On the jet ski, he would sit in front of me, his life vest matching the blue of the skidoo. The wind would be blowing his ears back and he would keep his nose slightly up as if he smelled something. When the waves get too rough, I would wrap my left arm around his chest and he would lean into me, keeping his from end down, but lifting his butt to help me balance as he used to do on the dirt bike. He was there running, jumping, swimming and playing with the neighborhood kids, barking at the fireworks and upsetting the old ladies who would tell him to sit quietly and behave. It has become impossible to do anything without thinking about him.

Interview on the Kane Show

Wednesday morning i went on the Kane Show and put out an APB on Ricochet. We talked about Riki. The radio played a clip of the mans voice and suggested that if anyone recognized it to email me. the radio station, however, did not post my email address and since then I have not received any emails regarding the man on the radio. A police dectective has become involved and will do his best to help find Riki.
