I’ve noticed this in a lot of comic strips. When they need an animal to talk about they always say duck. It makes sense. To me duck is a funny sounding word.
When I was younger I would hear about other kids jumping in go leaf piles for fun. I tried it. All my leaf piles were very small and spread out everywhere, and were 50% scratchy and 50% mulch. It was horrendous. I didn’t jump into leaf piles often.
Glad he is keeping it up. Haven’t met him yet. Maybe I should.
