Hey, there's an idea Carol! Jackson and Buddy sound like the perfect pair.

Maybe Buddy could hang out with Jackson over the winter and they could have a great time. I'm not sure but that may even be close enough for you to go visit!

Not that I'm trying to get out of my earlier offer - I love Buddy to peices and would be thrilled to have him come for a visit.
