Watching The Young Whippersnappers

The Seniors, Kiska and Qannik, enjoy the peace and quiet of the senior yard while keeping a close eye on the young whippersnappers of the Juniors.

Look at those crazy, young whippersnappers.

Look at those crazy, young whippersnappers.

Our senior team has always thought that one of the best design features of our house is the divided back yard with a senior zone and a junior zone. All the dogs can hang out together in the house, while traveling, or whenever Hu-Dad opens the gate between the two zones. But the seniors vote for their peace and quiet on most days and just enjoy hanging out on the porch and watching the zany actions next door.

We were never that crazy when we were young.

    When do you decide to move them to the senior yard? I was wondering how much longer Cheoah will be in the junior yard?

      Right now, Cheoah holds her own with the boys and, frankly, instigates them most of the time. For now, she is happiest with them.

        She is their princess. I can’t imagine her ever deciding to be with the other two instead. 🙂 I am not sure they mind that either.

A Shark Attacked My Best Friend

June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.

A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.

Enjoy it your way
