Kickass, the doorstop dog, reports that the keeper, ever anxious to demonstrate that he is just another of the varied life forms cluttering up the planet, joined a thousand seagulls in Sauk City to “feed.”
The gulls gathered up and down the Wisconsin River in sandbar reunions to occasionally lift up and ride the gusting wind in a search for fish lunches.
The keeper and Phyllis shopped at “The Pig” for essentials and then stopped at son Mike’s to accept his offer of French onion soup.
They then visited the Sauk-Prairie dam, and if the keeper could have spoken their language, he would have told the graceful wind-riding gulls, “You use the river with infinite grace. What my species does to it is often a disgrace.
“Bon appetit!”
