bear and rooster




there is a magic little lot on lawrence street that is filled with astro turf, fake trees bearing fake lemons, faded stuffed animals, crumbly structures made with pieces of wood, a giant bear of a sweet dog and a rooster. bear and rooster, best friends themselves, are mikey's very favorite animal pals in the neighborhood and a must-see on every walk. we are going to miss them when we move this weekend!
