Olives & Doug April Update

I'm happy to report that Olives and Douglas are apparently still best friends. According to her parents, Douglas is Olivia's very favorite stuffed animal "OF ALL-TIME", likely because he'll follow her around and play instead of just sitting there like most of all the other animals. 
In any event, he's a good sport about the whole thing and Olivia doesn't mind the occasional face-lick that goes along with having a Bulldog as a best friend. 

Although big Doug doesn't show an extreme amount of enthusiasm about playing house, he goes along with things in the apparent hope of eventually getting some real food instead of the pretend stuff Olivia typically serves up.

In other news, fishing season should soon be in full swing in Missouri and Arkansas. I think this could be the year that either "Klietus" or "The Duster-Man" sets a new state record in either the flathead or large mouth category. I'm betting at least one of them will. 
Also, cousin Darin is considering moving his entire operation from the wilds of Oklahoma, all the way up north to the last frontier, aka, Alaska. If he does, and providing he keeps the beard, I'm betting at least one lucky native Alaskan gal will soon be saying, "Big 'D', where have you been all my life!" and/or, "You big silly man, oh course I'll marry you!" 
On these and other family matters, I'll do my best to keep you posted...
