day one: try not to die please

Kal had been in the cart and out and back in more than once.  The boy loved looking over the edge but, you know, sometimes you can look a bit too far.  Once the ground was muddy it didn’t matter if he fell out, the ground was plenty soft.  So it was by the time the cart was stuck in the mud Kal was already a muddy little wolf himself.  He had tried wiping mud off of himself a few times but had only really managed to make it worse.  Eventually, he gave up on the whole matter.  If he spent all his time worrying about a bit of mud he’d miss out on this opportunity to play.

Looking around the brilliant pup realized he could actually combine play and cleaning!  That river looked about as impressive as you could get.  His wide-eyed gaze grew as he neared it.  The boy tapped at the water with a paw, it was cool to the touch and he grinned.  Touching turned into kicking the water with one front paw.  Even better!  Stepping in a bit farther he got both his front paws into the water, his back paws just barely not on the water.  Lowering his chest he starts kicking up the water with large splashes, water gets on his belly, legs, face, and chest to get off some bits of mud, and make some spots just all the muddier as the water mixes in.  Really though, it's fun regardless!
