Full moon serenade…

--One summer night after watching  a movie and getting ready to chase the children to bed. Everyone in the house was treated  to the most unearthly sounds coming from our backyard. And of course I being the father was given the chore of going out to investigate. Before leaving I reminded my family that this was what happened in all the movies, it would be so much easier if we all just went to bed. But of course they would have none of it. so of I went.
--After stumbling around in all the hole’s our dog who thinks she part gopher had dug , the sound started up again. Of course that was when my flashlight decided to quit.
--Not wanting to go back to face my family without an explanation, I kept up my search.
--It was about then that the full moon came out from behind a cloud to reveal the source of the howling.
--Our gopher dog and the and the 400lb comedian were howling at the moon like a couple of fools. Oh they were having a good old time of it, I yelled at them to go to sleep. But they just looked at me and went back to howling.
--Well I went back to explain to my family and their response well can’t you make them stop. I just shook my head. Like when could I ever make those to fools anything…
