The Big Stick

I was soooooo glad when Mom said: ‘Let’s go to the river, Sage.‘ Some of my favorite words, especially since I’ve had a few days of being bored out of my mind.

While we were strolling (that would be Mom) down the beach, we met Tess Trueheart. Tessie’s game is to swim out and bring back sticks (ball for me, thank you). Well, even I was amazed at what she was bringing back. Apparently, Tessie is way beyond the ordinary-sized stick and goes after logs.

But, I did wonder whether Tessie could bring back that surf-board?
