Later Alligator!

My tiger friend has got the sled,
And I have packed a snack.
We're all set for the trip ahead.
We'll eventually make it back.

The west is the place for us?
That's where we want to live.
Out there we'll get to yell and cuss,
And act real primitive.

The timber wolves will be our friends.
We'll stay up late and howl,
At the moon, till nighttime ends,
Before going on the prowl.

Oh, what a life? We cannot wait,
To be in that splendid land,
Where we'll be masters of our fate,
And lead a life that's grand!

No more life of nine to five!
We're heading for some snow!
Each day will make us feel alive!
We're leaving! Westward Ho!

My thanks to Bill Watterson for the framework of the above lyrics.

As I sit here typing I still have lots to pack. Flight tomorrow is at 8:20... part of me cannot believe I'm going through with this.


I wish you all a great summer!


Enjoy,
Damon

Damon -
I tried this the other day and I guess it didn't work. I'll try again...
Hope all is well and that you are enjoying the scenery. Let us know what's happening.
