Action under a fall sky

Hello Line, I just read your little piece, and I love it! There’s something so charming about the way you capture those tiny, lively moments, dogs, squirrels, chipmunks. It’s short, vivid, and somehow makes me smile while picturing the whole scene. Blessings, Line, Daniel

Humorous! My husband once witnessed a cat climbing a tree, it slipped and flew right into a danger dog’s doghouse.
