Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for September 07, 2019

and Calvin’s family left their week-long rainy camping trip the very day the rain unexpectedly stopped (where then Calvin and Hobbes jotted down some of the father’s angry choice words to look up in a dictionary when getting home)

The second panel with Mr. Thompson’s signature is poignant.

We actually see Petey frolicking in the water with everyone else! A brief, but still unusual occurrence.

I remember that one summer of rainy camping with our kids. Rain every single day. In a tent. Good times.

lol at the bumper sticker. Also, notice how gingerly Petey goes in the water. Well done, Mr. Thompson.

We had rain here last night (1.7 mm), first time in nearly 5 months.

Look at those smiles! Is that a great vacation or what?

Dad’s hat launch made it all worth while.

Someone has to step on a jellyfish.Can’t just have fun,and leave ;~|

Wait, what? Is that an actual, gulp, smile on Petey’s face in the last panel?

Mrs. Baker said the very same thing just last night.

Wonderful, sweet drawings today that made me tear up at the end.

I want that bumper sticker!

As Shake-speare said, all’s well that ends well.

So rarely do we see the whole Otterloop family happy at one and the same time!

Wait – Petey isn’t trying to chew his arm off?
