A Comeback

stylized photo of mikey demo the side with his backpack on walking in front of our garage doors in the rain.
Mikey likes to have the garage doors closed during his walk...an OCD tendency, for sure.

The driveway walk has made a comeback! It’s only occasionally, only when my buddy is ready for school early and needs to get out some serious wiggles!

Even when it’s raining…some quick laps around the driveway with a full backpack are a great way to start the day!
