Mr. Mouse’s Summer House

Well, by all accounts it looks like Mr. Mouse will be living in St. Louis this summer. It’s kind of a relief to think that that is all decided. I really don’t mind that he gets the opportunity–and if he’s only about 3 hours away, it would be a lot better than across the country. … [Read more…]
