Wednesday Story Day – AKA – Hump Day

It is Wednesday Story Day, and last week, we learned that Carolyn is probably headed for the Chunnel to go into France.

“Hey, Lucy. I thought we were going to lay out today.” “I’m doing just that.” I meant with lounges, dad fetching drinks, the radio, sunscreen, and gossip.” “Look around, Little One. We are dogs.” “So what. That doesn’t mean we can’t have fun too.” “Yeah, that’s true, but our fun is more basic.” “Whaddaya mean, […]

Wednesday Story Day – AKA – Hump Day
