    Don’t parents usually go with the kid on the first day of a kids first experience of school?.

    I really like the log cabin.

    The artwork is terrific. So much detail. Do you recognize the log home construction? Instead of the traditional saddle-notch construction technique, it’s the less frequently used butt-and-pass construction. I hate showing off my knowledge about things like this. :-) But seriously, the detail is great.

    Not all kids have parents show up with them on the first day. They have usually been pre registered.

    Thanks, Davidf42, I wouldn’t have known about that at all. Obviously Scancarelli must draw what he knows. Kudos to him!

    I bet Rover will call Boog’s cell to make sure he’s ok…

    What a beautiful spot. I read that Gasoline Alley was loosely based on Tomah, Wi. Rovers house looks right at home in the north woods.

    BigGrouch…I have evolved my conception of Gasoline Alley as that of a “community”. I believe when Walt was young it was a more urban setting but over the years it became a less specific location and therefor allows a variety of settings for a range of characters.
