There's a young man up here from NJ who's been attending our church for a couple of years now. He was with the Job Corps but got sent home for several months because of Covid. Anyway he's back now and was here today. He was telling all kinds of hilarious stories about his experiences, and then asked Dorry and me what we've been doing this summer. We're like, "Well, we've been taking care of dogs, we saw some bears..." 😂

We're like, "Well, we've been taking care of dogs, we saw some bears..." 😂The last couple days, I've got to see a friend I hadn't got to see in a few years, and we were talking about that. 😂 We both breed dogs and are really big into them, and we were talking about how embarrassing it is when someone asks us, "So, what's been going on in your life lately?" And we're like, "Well, um, puppies? Dogs?" 🤣🤣
