We find Mark still in Florida, pitching a cause… warning against the evils of invasive species- especially the likes of large constrictors!

That’s right, Campers, keep your head on straight and watch those impulses! Although this did give rise to an entire industry- snake removal services!
Back to the back story…

Appears that Doc Davis has secrets as well… but is the big “lie” the fact that Cherry is adopted too?

Awwww… cute. Cherry as a little girl. We also note that Doc was losing his battle with Male Pattern Baldness even, what, 30 or 40 years ago? And that his taste in clothing, jeans with a yoke style shirt, hasn’t changed. Looks like he sported the ol’ “bolo” tie when he was younger.
The small tree to the right of the house in the flashback has grown in the current views. Nice touch Jules.
Good catch!
Here’s a bit of neat history for you all……

Oh, are YOU Mark Carlson-Ghost!? IF SO…I’m feeling a bit slow in the noggin’ at my belated connection, as well as my now-moot reference to this site I left you on your own site! But, as I wrote there, that’s a great history and timeline you put together, Mark. As a comic strip fan in general, I am also enjoying your other comic strip histories.
Fantastic! We finally have a panel with wildlife! There is hope.
No George…. I am not that Mark I referenced. 🙂 Just interested in history.
