Rainbow fence is a place to remember pets
Kat Riley and Rose Moorehead lost their dog Josie back in September.
They wanted to find a way to remember her and the things she loved.
“We used to walk Josie on the trail every day,” Riley said.
Riley had seen a rainbow bridge with a beach scene that somebody created in another state. All she needed was that inspiration, memories of Josie, and a little paint
The couple made a rainbow bridge fence in their backyard, which backs up to the Lewes-to-Georgetown Trail in the Whispering Pines community, just west of the Lewes Senior Activity Center.
The goal is for people leave something in memory of a pet they have lost – a message written on the fence, a collar or a favorite toy.
Some people have already used a Sharpie they left there to leave tributes to their pets.
“I just figured there’s so many people on this trail every day. I hope they’ll pass it on and tell other people,” Riley said.
