When my dad first passed away back in 2011 the first few Father’s Days were difficult. While I was drawing this it dawned on me because I’ve been drawing these comics for over 11 years many readers may have never[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I knew I had a ground hog (or ground hogs) living behind and beneath my shed but I hadn’t realized that they’d chewed their way into the bottom of it. They’ve probably been sleeping in the shed through the winter.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
