The Reformation of Wolfshausen
Teil Vierundsiebzig
To hear this week's episode, approach the schoolmaster at right.
Or, you can read this week's episode in the brothel.
Isn't it wonderful to wake up to the sun... stretch a bit, and indulge one's self in a rare moment of solitude? Nice work Doug! Things do happen (or disappear) during such times - even perhaps a boar.
I don't mess with simian Oregonians, so take your time.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure their stories are much more intriguing than Frau Brown this morning!
ReplyDeleteDid your crow and oriole babies in the back yard fledge yet?
You definitely have much more important and fun things to do. We'll see you later.

I found today's story very comforting. To know that there's a wise pair traveling the world makes me feel good.
ReplyDeleteGood morning Doug and friends,
ReplyDeleteIt appears you have one very rude house guest this morning. I hope the amoeba gives her a piece of his mind over at Quilly's house.
Other than that, Teil Vierundsiebzig is delightful.
Good installment. But I think boy and pig could use Trudi's help.

TLP, as you can see, I did. But thanks. You used to be meaner.
ReplyDeleteTerry, I have no idea but there was a big crow in the Oriole tree yesterday. Do they ever fight?
And...I'm back.
Sleep well, Karen.
Anonymous,there hasn't been a lot of silence around here lately. I'm hoping for a good harvest this week.
Terry, boar's can be stealthier than you'd think. Especially fictional ones.
Nessa, I wonder if there's one around now.
Thanks, A-bell. I should try reading some magic this week.
Thanks, Karen.
I do, too, TLP. I hope she catches up.
Bear, I think Jeremiah will be ready for life as it comes to him, unless he tries to become a scholar.
