One of Hu-Dad’s strict rules is that we must sleep inside at night. Something about wild creatures roaming our woods, though we think it may have something to do with preventing 2 a.m. choir practice.

Anyway, since we all sleep inside at night, our last patrol of the evening must be solid to make sure that every creature knows to leave our space alone.

Even after a long hike, a Queen must always avoid a fashion faux pas like, say, an out of place tongue. No, the Queen and Decorum are intact.
