Good Bye Dwight K. Beattie

So this morning I found poor Dwight looking to be stuck at the bottom of one of his "tubes" in his Habitrail. I have been concerned about Dwight's health for quite some time. I am pretty sure he had the 'mange' or at the very least a problem affecting his fur. He has acted lethargic and just not very active..... Today it became official that he was gone. I checked on him again about noon and he was still in the same position....stuck in his tube. I didn't want to have to tell Nick about Dwight, but he actually took it very well. Sorta shrugged his shoulders and that was that. Scott, Jake and I went out back, dug a hole and place Dwight, tube and all, in his eternal resting place. Now we are down to Ted and Wrigley. Still haven't replaced the fish. I am sure I would kill them off, again. I think we will stay down-sized for now.
