With spring fully upon us, most of us are choosing to spend our days outdoors. Periodically, Hu-Dad walks by to check and make sure we aren’t up to mischief (Who? Us?) and that we are properly handling our sentry duties.

    Sorry Roscoe-I guess you did fail the alertness check but’s that’s okay-everyone needs a little nap now and then!
