day 45

Well the boy is off with his Grandparents and the house is clean and quiet! Madeline sleeps most of the time and come to think of it so do the dogs! The highlight of Andrew's summers is his Granddad taking him fishing, the only problem is that he is a little spoiled when it comes to fishing, not liking to touch the bait or unhook his own fish (we won't even get into cleaning his own catch here!!). It may even be too hot for them to get out this trip, but if they do, this is what happens every time!

day 43

Well, I fell off the wagon hard this weekend, no cartoons for 3 days!  Family first, lotsa cleaning and entertaining done over the last few days, part of living this life! I will try and catch up, but I think getting in a toon every day may not be practical, but will still be attempted.  Such is life!

This is a large toon about the park on the local river where I take my son fishing! It's an old dam that once had a grinding mill on it. This river, in addition to having a major Civil War battle fought on it, also has the most old mill dams. A very beautiful place usually filled with some of the most butt-ugly people on the planet! I just had to give the lit'redneck Coopertone girl a Pitt-bull instead of a nice little puppy! Really, just had ta'!

day 42

Man, I screwed this one up bad! Ran out of my regular paper and at the last minute used this paper I found in a stack of old supplies from the 80's. The minute I started to erase, everything smeared and it's way too late to start over tonight, so! I took the Boy fishing today and noticed how much stuff is involved in fishing now! I remembered my grandmother taking me fishing in the summers when I was his age and we did it on the cheap, caught more and had twice the fun!

I got up early to fix the wife's lunch and though I would fix this cartoon also. This one is composed better and has no smear lines!

day 27

I am beat, had to sub again today and this time got a whole fifth grade class all to myself.  The day finished up OK, just wore me down.  Now I promised you a cartoon everyday.  I did not promise a funny or even a quality one!!! If you have been following the blog by now you may have noticed that I will go back and tweak old cartoons to make them funnier or correct glaring mistakes in spelling or composition. Today's cartoon was drawn a week ago. Never came up with a good line, still haven't! But, in the need for continuity, I will post, but be warned, I think this puppy will be worked on plenty in the next few days!  The gag revolves around Bruce's first trip in our backyard.  He looked around and immediately jumped in the Koi pond and was drug out a  green furball from the algae!
