At the very top left corner of the picture is a tiny sky blue triangle.

The 10-month-old husky mix we adopted has created much chaos and destruction in just a few days. I love him.

The newest member of our household, Theodore Howl the Third. (“Teddy” for everyday use.) DNA testing says he’s a husky/chihuahua mix.

I didn’t take any photos, but the No Kings in Kansas City was massive! I didn’t even try to get to the park, just stood (with many others) on the sidewalk a block away.
