I love this one.
Remember Rundy's Investigator stories? Perfect. I think he needs to do a few more installments.
That's exactly what came to mind when I wrote the words "wild natives!" Though I haven't been to the electronic Purdyville in ages, those stories still make me laugh when I think of them.
The girls need swarms of flies buzzing about their heads, though...
i love love love love love this picture.
i can't wait to see you all!
Tomorrow it is! (If I don't get lost on the way, which I am notorious for doing, even with the world's greatest directions from Mags.)
