Stars Fell on Alabama
Even the Moon is in on My Scheme (Myles)


Pickwick's Even the Moon is in on My Scheme
ID Marker: White Boy

Kennel name: Buz Apollo (as in Buz Aldrin and NASA Apollo moon landing)
Forever name: Myles (because his humans had to travel so far to get him!)

Picture
Myles lives with his awesome parents in Long Island, NY and they take such amazing care of him. We recently met up with them in North Carolina and he got to see his sister Lilibeth (the puppy from the litter who stayed with us at Pickwick Pugs). They remembered each other! Here are some photos from our November, 2021 trip. They had just turned 1 year old in these photos (Lilibeth is on the left as you are looking at the photos):

We SO love getting photos and updates on our puppies and it's always wonderful seeing how loved, blessed, and cherished they are . . . . Here is Myles' Halloween costume from October, 2021. He met another little boy at the fall harvest pumpkin maze who was ALSO wearing a Captain America costume!

First hours in this world:

Day 2:

Day 7:

Handsome white boy’s kennel name is Apollo, (originally we called him "Buz" as in Buzz Aldrin) in memory of John Osborne Aberg, Amy McLelland’s father, who was one of the early engineers at NASA (originally the Army Ballistic Missile Agency at Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama, before Marshal Space Flight Center and NASA was formed).

Just a few years prior to starting his work with the early team of scientists, including Von Braun and other German scientists, he had moved to America from Sweden after graduating college. As a child, Amy had a school writing assignment in perhaps 3rd or 4th grade to interview someone important in her life. She chose her father and remembers writing of his fascination with rockets even as a young boy and his “experiments” he would launch on the beaches in Sweden. It’s no wonder that he never retired from NASA and was still working until his death in 1995. If he were still alive today he would be age 93, and still probably working in some capacity. In fact, when he died unexpectedly at age 68, he was so excited about the upcoming Mars missions. There was always something just on the horizon. John Aberg worked on such programs as Jupiter, Mercury, Saturn, and of course Apollo (something to do with “the tip” … whatever that means.)  

With the first Apollo moon landing, Amy remembers the family gathered in the den glued to the television set. We would all run outside and stand in the driveway staring up into space. The moon was visible that night. Amy was 6 years old and her 2 older sisters were 12 and 13. We all were sure we saw the astronauts walking on the moon but our father kindly responded “it is impossible to see that far with the naked eye.” There are not many childhood memories quite so vivid … so clear that you almost smell the air of that night we stood as a family gazing up at the sky.

We pary white boy will bring countless memories just as vivid and wonderful to someone, or several “someones” throughout his lifetime … filled with love, awe, excitement, and lasting memories.
