Transcript

I don't believe that's our ring. I know this llama, I believe you're right. Oh, see. Hello, Johnum down, so on. This is love and happiness. Let's see what's going on down in Pine Ridge. Well, Mom is a little worried over the fact that Dodge and his smith found out he had ruined the package of pamphlets

he was supposed to deliver to the Manotha County seat. However, his worries are somewhat overshadowed by his new activities as Air Raid warden. his aerate warden. He appointed Mount Big Gray as one of his watchers and put him on duty all last night.

As we look in on the little community today we find love in the Jockam Downs store and library. Abner had just returned after making the delivery. Listen. I know he's all my mum's home wore out. I ain't used to making them delivers no more, you know what?
