[Delmonico]

"Slim's upper torso would be a bit lumpy if'n he'd a used corn cobs."

[Trinity]

 

"Ah reckon so at that!  Din't thank of that use."

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Irish is bring supplies back from Town in the wagon and sees the sign for Del's new business and the buggies parked in neatly marked spaces in the yard!  As he pulls in Slim comes out the doorway from the kitchen in his pink poodle skirt and lumpy pink sweater, the Percherons get one look at him and bolt off the Ranch.  Delmonico hears the racket and looks out the window in time to see L.I.T. disappear over the rise at a high rate of speed, wondering what his hurry is he goes back to flipping burgers.

[Silver Creek Slim]

<Arthur's note: Friends!  >
Slim looks down. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
He rips off the pink sweater and "badly shorn sheep" skirt. He runs to his room to put on his real clothes.

[Stoney Pete]

Slim looks down. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

Stoney hears the screem from clear out with the herd.    Turning to his horse he says,  "We won't be going home today either."

[Trinity]

Pretending to be tending to the customers, Trinity shouts through the window to Delmonico:  "Three more burgers wif chili an' cheese!!!"

[Delmonico]

Slim finds nuthin' but blouses and poodle skirts in his closet.

Trinity, ride out and have Stoney Pete bring in another steer to grind.

[Silver Creek Slim]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! 
Slim faints. 

[Delmonico]

While Slim is out cold, Delmonico decides he's a bit pugy fer a buggy hop, so he gets Trinity to help him and the take off his blouse, leavin' the tissue in place.   Then they lace him up tight in a corset and re-dress him.  

Delmonico revives him with smellin' salts and hands him a buger platter to take to a buggy.

[Trinity]

 "Dail, jes what kind of buggy hop is this here??  Oh, thars four sides in the ice house.  Three burgers fer slot number four, please."

[Delmonico]

Delmonico hands them to Slim on a platter and rolls him out the door.

[Delmonico]

From the kitchen Delmonico hollors to Trinity, "Got an order fer chicken strips, go run over ona Slim's chickens with the hay rake."

"Also run down to the river and catch some crawdads, got an order fer a shrimb basket."

"Get some water out a the marsh near the Dismal, got an order fer a Green River."

[Trinity]

Trinity takes the platter from Slim and retires to the hammock.  "Whew!  This is just too much work.  Ah gotta eat somethin' an' rest a little.  Them chickens gonna have ta wait!"

[Ozark Tracker]

Qzark, who has been tendin animals all day down at the barns,  comes into the house past Del in the buggy drive in, past Trinity eating burgers and fries and looks into the next room where Slim looks like he's been hog tied with a straight jacket with bulges and stuck in a dress, Stoney is nowhere in sight, wonders outloud is there anything new going around chere.

Marshal, Who has been glassing all this, muses, "They think sheephearding is weird, Huh?"







Gueiss it takes all kinds. 

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Irish has finally gotten the Percherons under control, and using blinders to get them past Slim, manages to get them in the Barn.  Hearing Del's request to Trinity, and seeing as how Trinity isn't going anywhere further than the condiment station, Irish fires up Del's steam tractor and a few minutes later hands Del a pail of Dismal water, several baskets of crawdads, and a couple of mechanically seperated chickens.

[Stoney Pete]

Stoney see's the going's on through his spy glass.  "Look's like we spend the weekend roughin' it.  But we gotta rescue Slim so's he can head home."

Riding at full gallop, Stoney pulls his rope off his saddle horn and without breaking stride, he's able to lasso Slim and pull him up on his horse.  They ride out to the herd.

"In one why it's good your horse throwed you.  Del was not able to get to the clothes in your saddle bags.  I've picketed your horse by the fire.  You'd better get outta that corset and wash your face before going home to the Mrs. and wee one's.  I sure wouldn't wanta be explaining that to her."  

"In fact I'm ridding home with you.  I ain't takin' no chance of Del makin' me verk this weekend."

[Silver Creek Slim]

"Thanks, Stoney. Yer a real pard." Slim changes clothes and washes his face. He throws the pink sweater, badly shorn sheep skirt, corset, roller skates, etc. into the campfire.

[Delmonico]

Trinity brings in a couple of the Wagon Ladies to work.    The buggy hops are such a big hit, Delmonico puts up a large sign that says.

Burger Queen

[Delmonico]

Delmonico makes some larger buns and takes two pounds a buger and grills it, addin' all sorts of con-de-mints to it.   He then adds the "Big Delmonico" burger to the menu.
