We’re enjoying a quiet evening on the deck when Boom Boom hears a who…or a what…or something worth investigating.
Our decks here have a special feature Hu-Dad is quite proud of…locking gates. Yes, believe it or not, we not only have to ask to go in and out but we also have to ask to go up and down the steps. Can you believe the ways he keeps “improving” Sibe Quentin?
Something about creatures that crawl, scrabble, and slither their way out of the salt marsh and into our yard, so Hu-Dad checks first and let’s us know whether it’s worth the visit. In this case, he denied Boom’s inspection request with the explanation it wasn’t that interesting anyway.

Wings of Doom
December 12, 2024
A simple nightly routine with my dogs led me to face the wings of doom, a hideous creature that lurks in the shadows of my yard.
Hu-Dad's Novels
His books pay for our food!
Love the expressive face Boom! Those piercing eyes…You’re right to be suspicious of we humans when we say ” nothing to see here”. I can assure you, there’s always something to see! Keep watching, you’ll eventually see what’s not there! Have a watchful weekend!????
ditto on all the comments! . . .
but you lost me at ” slither their way out of the salt marsh and into our yard ”
Ewww!!!
He’s so expressive. You captured his shifty look so well.
The face!!
Watch out Boom Boom, it could be the Creature From the Black Lagoon lurking about!!
The look on Boom-Boom’s face in the last shot is priceless. Have a great and safe weekend.
UH-oh Boom Boom-do you THINK Hu-Dad is tricking you and there’s something REALLY interesting in the yard?? Have a great weekend all and be safe and well!
