Let me introduce myself, I am George the Basset Hound and I am 44 years old (dog years that is). Today my mom Betty, and my dad Bob, are taking me on a walk to the park down the road.

I will sit in my stand all day if that’s what it takes to kill this deer.

218 Blenheim Road was a minacious husk of what once was a home. The family that had lived there last had long moved to Iowa or Wisconsin or some other boring Midwestern state. Nobody remembered who they were anyway. The house loomed above the sidewalk like a dried up animal skeleton.
