Weekly Report # 36

We had another adventurous week. Started with DD bringing a tick home from our hikes the previous day. Another trip to the doctors office. By the middle of the week we were at the veterinarian office. We found out our dog Kona is very sick with pancreatitis. It was a very long week, yet we still managed to get quite a bit of work done.
