Kickass, the doorstop dog, joins the keeper and Phyllis and the rest of the herd in welcoming newest member “August” produced by Natalie and Eliot and coming in as a 21-incher as measured in trout-fishing terms.
Welcome, August! You are entering a wild old world at a time when its very existence is seemingly up for grabs.
Well, grab on, boy and hear this from your old—very old, great grandad who grabbed on about the time the wheel was invented: “You are in for a great ride with good people, Augie. They don’t take any crap from anyone and they don’t hand it out unnecessarily. I hope we get to meet so we can talk about that. In the meantime, it is great to have you on board. Buckle up your diaper and hang on!
