I apologize - my Mac where I'm testing was on a different network where I wasn't able to send email and couldn't get access to copy and paste. I now have access to the log entries:

	1472664782.393      0 127.0.0.1 TCP_MISS/403 4417 GET http://google.com/ - HIER_NONE/- text/html
	1472664782.394      6 192.168.100.2 TCP_MISS/403 4487 GET http://google.com/ - ORIGINAL_DST/127.0.0.1 text/html
	1472664782.468      0 192.168.100.2 TCP_MEM_HIT/200 13035 GET http://osx-mdslfd56-u:3128/squid-internal-static/icons/SN.png - HIER_NONE/- image/png

Thanks for the explanation - from observation, that is what I was guessing on how it was working. But hearing it helps.
