Code Inspector

 I caught my chipmunk buddy napping.  While enjoying a cigar and bourbon on the deck, he’d sit on my shoe and enjoy the day.  Like me, he seems to prefer La Gloria Cubana Serie S Maduros.

He’d also scurry around our tools and feet as we rebuild the deck.  Probably a supervisor making sure we build his deck right.  Gosh, I hope he’s not the code inspector! 

Entertaining little buggers.
