Sod Buster moans as he lies by the side of the road.
"Ugh....I feel like a cow that ate too much springtime grass.  My belly is swollen and feels like it needs to be punctured.    Owwwwwwwww"

Dang that Trinity feller......

[Trinity]

No longer hearing Delmonico complaining about trees, Trinity goes into the kitchen to check on him where he learns that Delmonico has left for supplies.  Before leaving, however, he had left a cherry pie on the window sill to cool.  Trinity begins to drool and it is not long before he has taken the pie down and devoured the entire thing.

[Delmonico]

On his way to Dunning, Delmonico wonders how Trinity fared with the pie made out of wax cherries.   He snickers and then stops the wagon and jumps out with his axe an whacks a small tree growin' along the trail.

[Trinity]

Slim walks in as Trinity finishes the pie. 

"Sleeeum, d'ya know whar Dail got these-hair cherries?  They don't taste right... fact is, they don' taste a'tall."  As Trinity talks, chunks of wax are flying out of his mouth.

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Irish walks into the kitchen looks at Trinity, then looks at Slim.  Irish gets a cup of coffee, looks at Trinity again and just shakes his head as he walks toward the barn.

[Delmonico]

Slim, knowing about the wax cherries, feeds Trinity a piece of string.

[Trinity]

Trinity gags and asks "What'th thith thang fer?"

[Delmonico]

Slim says, "in a day or so we'll have a candle."

[Trinity]

 

Trinity thinks about it and confused, he asks "How?"

[Delmonico]

Delmonico arrives in Dunning still grinning about the WAX cherries in the pie.  He boards the eastbound CB&Q and heads to Omaha.

[Trinity]

"Sleeum, Ah asked how is we gonna git a candle in a few days!  Whah won'tcha answer me?"

[Silver Creek Slim]

"You'll find out." 

[Delmonico]

Delmonico has a fresh broiled trout for supper, when done he tosses the head out the window and heads to his Pullman berth.

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Irish puts on a fresh pot of coffee and starts to make some stew.  He see's Del's recipe for wax cherry pie and decides to whip up another one fer Trinity.

[Trinity]

Sleep walking, Trinity comes upon another pie in the window.  Two minutes later the only things left are crumbs and a tiny smudge of glaze and Trinity is back in bed.

[Delmonico]

Tom of course added the string to the pie.

[Delmonico]

Delmonico gets to Omaha and gets a hotel.

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Back at the Ranch everyone settles in for the night.

[Sod Buster]

Sod Buster awakens at the side of the road and continues his quest to get home to his Soddy.  Later that evening he arrives, brushes off the dirt and vermin from his bed, and crawls in.
