The Tree that Laid Down – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human, look, look, look!

Sweetie: That huge tree is taking a nap over there.

Me: Oh, no. The neighbor’s tree fell. But it didn’t hit their house or anything else from the looks of it.

Sweetie: Why did it take a nap now? It never has before.

Me: I don’t know. No wind. No storm.

Doodlebug: Sometimes you just have to lie down and rest.

MoonCat: I make a regular habit of it.
