That Place 2: Trouble
Well, let's see... where to begin. Well, I've heard folks say to begin at the beginning, but just where is the beginning? It doesn't seem quite right to tell you all about when I was a pup with my mother, brothers and sisters, or growing up by myself...
That Place 1: Intro
I hadn't planned on writing this story. In fact, I wish it would never have to be written, not as fact but as pure fantasy fiction, fear of the booger man, fear of the monster under the bed. Things that are purely figments of our imaginations so...

A Day Off Part 2
A Day Off Part 2 "We'll see about that in a bit, Zack. But for now, you best be helping Chet with the wood, ok?" I smiled at Zack. "Sure thing, Mr. Peters!" Zack smiled. I'm sure he guessed that he'd just added something more to the list for the...
A Day Off Part 1
A Day Off Part 1 Even though I should have probably done my check on Honey, or put Big John through his paces, I spent the majority of the day whittling away at the pile of paperwork that had accumulated on my desk over the past week and some whose...

Arguments, Concerns, and Love
Arguments, Concerns, and Love Zack and I went down to the basement level and got a couple folding chairs out of the storage room, then headed up to the terrace. I set up one near the door for Zack and one for myself near the partition between the...
Educational Opportunities
Educational Opportunities Julie finally looked curiously at me. "Can I... uh...." "Can you what, hon?" I asked, not quite understanding what she was after. "Can I see what his stuff looks like?" Julie managed to mumble some. I gave it some...
Secondhand Lions, Strange Surprises
Secondhand Lions, Strange Surprises Jerry wasn't around as I strolled up out front, which was just as well. I wasn't really there to see him, but instead to see just how bad Big John was acting around Honey. If he was harassing her too much I'd have...
New Friends and Old Battles
New Friends and Old Battles I woke up still cuddled with Julie, Cleo having moved to a different spot overnight. I nuzzled Julie's neck some and kissed her nosie. "Good morning, sleepyhead." Julie wriggled and gradually gained consciousness. She...
Roaring Road Trip 4: Take Me Home, Country Roads
Roaring Road Trip 4: Take Me Home, Country Roads Julie woke me and it was still dim out, and still raining fairly heavily. I looked over the edge of the bunk and saw Hercules standing in the aisle. "I think he wants to go back, Jim," Julie said...
