Mike and Red. Burning the barn. Red seems to pick up friends and admirers wherever he goes, and he goes everywhere. I’ve never seen a dog make so many friends, not even Lenore, who is the Hound of Love. I often contrast Red with Rose, and they both loved their work, but Red is very eager to attach to people and hang around with them. He seems to fit in just about everywhere I go. Even to a barn fire.
