[Stoney Pete]

Stoney heard.  Two distinct voices.  One male and one the FFG.    The male voice was that of the painting before all them dogs playin poker.  'The pipe helped.',  He thought.

"FFG, you not alone.  The voice is audible.  Either that or this "tobbacco" from the indian cheif  is more than it appears."

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

I see. 

On hearing that, she doesn't say anything, she just cleans harder and faster, but her free hand clenches her robe a little more tightly around her.

She calls out: "Okie!" Then clears her throat, "OK! Thank you, Pete!"

[Delmonico]

Listenin' to all this Delmonico decides to go to Dunning and catch the train, between folks talkin' to pictures, Slim leavin' in the middle of the week and the fella that eats cow heads cooked over weeds, it's time for a rest.  They never even notice he caught Moby George the Great White Catfish that's been sinkin' ships on the Dismal.

right now even being takin' by the flying plates sounds good.

(Author's note: Oh, dagnabbit!! I had a long post about her and eating the catfish, and now I don't see it!    Sorry about that, Delmonico!   )

[litl rooster]

litl rooster comes in from a long day of herd work, and a meeting with the Building Inspector (Bob Villa) for the final on the new Bunk House.. Walking by Stoney Pete who is sitting with his pipe enjoying the coffee, I announce the Bunkhouse in the front passed  the inspection. The one in the back well  ah a ..........I pour myself a cup of coffee and look in the icebox for leftover catfish.  It's all gone... Leaving as I past where the picture hung last week I see the image of something begin to appear...........

[Delmonico]

Delmonico sets up camp about 15 miles down river and enjoys the peace and quiet and the simple sanity of a sandhills evening.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother smooches Litl Rooster's cheek when she meets him in the hallway.

"Yer grubby, so it must've been a good day."

She makes her way to the porch by going through the parlor and bypassing the kitchen.

[Delmonico]

Delmonico lays on his blankets and looks at the stars.  He thinks about how quiet it is out here, not crazy like it is back at the ranch.  It is a bit lonely, he wishes he had a wallet sized talkin' picture though.

Want to watch the first season of "Nebrassky" on dvd?

[Scattered Thumbs]

Scattered Thumbs watches with interest the new picture forming on the wall.

Now, who the heck is he? He asks.

Not me fer sure. It may not seem possible now, but at that age my hair was still almost blond.

[Stoney Pete]

Stoney becomes aware that he's spent the night in the chair on the porch.  "Gonna talk to the chief about that Tobacco.  I wonder if he got the regular stuff mixed up with the vision quest weed."

As Stoney forced his stiff body into the kitchen he heard the voice saying,

Now, who the heck is he? He asks.

Not me fer sure. It may not seem possible now, but at that age my hair was still almost blond.

OK, Stoney thought, it weren't the weed.  He starts making coffee  and fries up some bacon and eggs.  Taking his breakfast out the porch, Stoney sits back in his chair and eats while he waits for the rest of the world to wake up.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother sleepily walks into the kitchen, she doesn't look at the wall. A faint smile appears as she sees breakfast and coffee are already made, so she serves herself some, then gets some milk from the icebox to add to her coffee.

[Scattered Thumbs]

Ah! There you are!

Do ya now that young feller on the wall?

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

"Gak!" She jumps a little, then reluctantly turns to look at the wall.

"Don't sneak up on me like that. No, I don't know him. That isn't you?"

[Scattered Thumbs]

"Gak!" She jumps a little, then reluctantly turns to look at the wall.

"Don't sneak up on me like that. No, I don't know him. That isn't you?"

Nope, that ain't me. That's why I'm asking.

And I didn't sneak on you, I was already here.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

"Well, goody goody for you!" She gives a sniff and takes her breakfast and coffee out on the porch.

"Morning, Pete, thanks for the breakfast!"

[Stoney Pete]

"Morning.  That voice won't go away huh?" 

"Well you could always make friends.  Look at is this way, well never be lonely in the kitchen."

[Scattered Thumbs]

< ST thinking to himself >

I wonder if they think I'm confined to the kitchen? 

I just hang here cause I like the smell of coffee.

I don't go into their private quarters because I firmly believe that they are private .

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

As if on cue, the Frumpy Fairy Godmother inhales the scent of her coffee then has a sip. Darting a look to the kitchen, she whispers to Pete, "he does have to stay in the kitchen, doesn't he?"
