On the trail

Although the low point of my day was one of my four-year-olds trying to bite me, it was more than made up for by the high point, which was my mother reading today's "Mark Trail" aloud from the comics section. My family has a hobby of finding the strips where animals have speech bubbles coming from their heads - this happens surprisingly often. Today's was a gem, including a talking St. Bernard, two wood ducks, and a leaf. Mom's leaf voice is impressive.
