“Good. Please stay safe, Officer.”
“Roger that.” Ross immediately regretted barking at the dispatcher. She was just doing her job, and it didn’t hurt to make sure everyone had a handle on where they were supposed to be and what they were supposed to be doing. “Huber out.”
He put his radio down and looked in the rearview mirror. “Looks like we’re going for an adventure,” he told the dog.
The dog didn’t reply. He probably had the same dim view of adventuring that Ross and maybe most hobbits, had. Maybe he’d already had enough adventuring for one day.
