The rustic life has appeal…

  As the weather improved, outdoor napping became a new and tantalizing option.

Nosedive…with soft landing.

  Folks, what can I say?  One second he was sitting up.  I came back into the room less than five minutes later and saw this.  He stayed there upwards of a half hour.

Background noise be damned…

    On this particular day, I found him like this, with a half-consumed smoothie, in front of the roaring menu for the Ice Age video.  ROOOOAAAR!   ROOOOAAR!  He was undisturbed.  He had the police to protect him.

Better with friends…

    William quickly discovered that napping was nicer with similarly exhausted friends.  Bunny proved a good repeat nap buddy and Blue Puppy became a convert.  In case you’re wondering what that string is, it’s a helium balloon, floating just out of frame.  Sort of like a day at the sleepy circus.
