Life's a road trip and sometimes the loudest passenger is the dog in the front seat. Tales & Tails on Lifelong Trails is a delightfully quirky, heartfelt collection of real-life reflections, full of humor, grit, barking dogs, aging bones, late-night snacks, and everyday mishaps.Told in sharp, playful verse and prose, these snapshots capture the small, meaningful moments that make up a life: the stubborn dog who runs the household, the joys of a QT lemonade slushie, the eternal search for peace (or at least a nap), and the quiet wisdom of aging with a little grace and a lot of attitude. From dog fights to doctor visits, backyard musings to grocery store chaos, this collection celebrates the beautiful mess of it all.
