Hello world, it's been a busy summer for me. Last time we met I had stopped at a place called "DEAL OR SHIP" that had lots of "beasts," with eyes that light up gathered outside and I borrowed one of those to strike out on the road and look for dinosaurs. It has been a whirlwind of a summer!!! First I stopped to procure a snack for myself and some fuel for my ride at this big building on a hill close to my home (the Bollinger County Museum). Next I set off in another direction on one of those curvy roads out of town (north on 51) until I came upon this place with big shiny moveable houses that seemed to have a lot of horses looking in them. I looked a few over, that was fun, and then wondered on. Along the way I stopped at a place with lots of big yellow "beasts," but alas none of them was awake to talk. I headed on out and arrived at a marvelous place with lots of animals, some of them were friendly, but some just honked at me to move on. Heading back down the highway I made a stop to check out the late breaking news. Hmm, a dinosaur is on the loose. Maybe I will run into him..." With no luck finding dinosaurs so far I set off another direction and discovered some Wildcats, made friends with a big dog, and even discovered a new fizzy drink in a shiny container, who knew when I pushed on the big tall box something this good would pop out! Rolling on down the highway I smelled something delicious and stopped in to see what it was. Guess what, I saw all these rows of treats lined up in a big box with a see through front. Well let me tell you after tasting all those things called pies, cakes, and donuts, a dinosaur can get mighty stuffed. Barely able to waddle I hit the road again and passed another of those strange places with big yellow "beasts"; it must be the time of year for them to hibernate because all these were asleep too. With nobody around to play with I traveled on to arrive at a most beautiful big watering hole where I took a quick dip. I think I might just rest here a while and let those sweet treats settle....To be continued.
