Picture of a Sharieland rock from November, just north of Head Line.
An upright picture Edna and I came home to after work one day. I don’t think the cats could have set this up, not having opposable thumbs and all. In googling my old schoolmate whose picture is involved, found out her mother died the same day as another schoolmate’s father who I also had a picture of in the same pack. Later I identified this trickery with The Mad, Merry Pranks of Uncle Joe and Aunt Zoe, coming soon to a bookstore near you.
De-energized Supersity sacred hoop, also recently mentioned here in the Frank and Herman, Einstein! Blog.
A couple of days ago I also re-visited Falmouth in Frank Park.
Meanwhile at Whitehead Crossing in the same park, reincarnated Uncle Joe and Aunt Zoe, now half bee/ half human twins themselves, lead a new gang of toy avatars to the town’s south entrance. Name? The Strange Gang, I believe.
Lazy Sideburn Man — or perhaps it is his twin sister Daisy — desires entrance as well. He wishes to be glued together for resurrection. Although he appears joined up from his former dismemberment at Heart Lake, it’s only the coordinated pushings and shovings of the accompanying ninjas that create this illusion. If they relaxed these efforts, he’d fall to pieces.
Albino Turtle has heard about her larger cousin Green Turtle of the town and wishes to meet up. Her closest companion Satan Eyes has other plans. Shine Devil sticks close to him, not wanting to let a mortal enemy out of his sight. Chipper “Chippy” Chimpmunch is on the lookout for friendly squirrels. Zoe waves merrily to a wind blown oak leaf. Much more could be said here.
Yet the Strange Gang would be denied entrance to Whitehead Crossing by the blocking Fourth Stick, also the largest. Karma is a hard thing to erase.
I pack the cold, disappointed avatars back into my satchel and return them to my house.
