…the cougars are out!

Which also, in return, makes this a happy year for us, when he’s happy, we’re happy.

But, we are tailgating without Dusty today, he was up at dawn to leave for the Philippines, he didn’t know he booked this trip on Superbowl Sunday and then once he realized it – there was no way to change it…
