We "saved" Spudnik from the gaggle of geese! The little Tater was surrounded by many territorial feathered creatures, but the brave children of Ardychan made a mad dash for the stash and retrieved Spudnik in quick order.
We plan on taking Spudnik on a relaxing Hawaiin vacation in two weeks (unless the Cub scouts have any objections). There, he can soak up the sun, relax and hopefully be picked up by some East Coasters heading back to New England.
