That One Summer | Jason Waud & Joe Waud

Part 1: Chevy

You opened your eyes and looked at the alarm clock. You were relieved because it was the first day of summer break and for the first time in forever, you were able to get more than 6 hours of sleep. You went to the bathroom and got ready and had a quick breakfast. You decided to go to the river nearby to enjoy the morning with your cup of iced coffee you made. Looking at the trees and listening to the sounds of the river, you remembered why you loved living in Washington. As you started to close your eyes and take in all the sounds of nature, you were disturbed by barks that came from a dog nearby. As you looked over, you saw a golden retriever staring back at you and barking continuously. You thought it was weird that the dog was by itself without an owner, so you went closer and started to pet it. You noticed that the name-tag said Chevy. Chevy started to follow you with an empty bowl so you decided it would be best to bring him home while you figure out who the owner was. As you started to walk back in the direction of your house, you heard someone yell "Chevy".
