Rugby has an opinion about everything and what comes out of his mouth may surprise you!"Some of the animals made holes in the ground. I used to try to go into the holes to see what was in them. I think I was too big because sometimes I got stuck and then my mom would laugh and pull me out. 'Rugby Jones, are you crazy?' she would ask. 'You can't fit in there.
