Sentimental Journey
Pardon me, but I’m feeling a bit sentimental today. While updating the website, I was struck by how much Asa has changed.

We Got Sprayed!
We got sprayed! Oh it is awful! We’ll never get that smell out! What do you mean skunks are bad, use tomato juice? It wasn’t a skunk. It was a cat! What?! No! It wasn’t us that got sprayed! It was Dad’s car! Seriously, did you really think we’d let a cat spray us? Dad […]
