Taking The High Ground
We’re getting a couple days break from our very hot weather, so some play time in the backyard broke out.

Brotherly Focus
Roscoe and Typhoon play chase games morning, noon, and night, but timeouts do occur. If something off the field of play is worth a brotherly focus, the chaos will pause… for a few seconds.
