The picnic in the shade of the old peach tree was wonderful.
Of course, Wendell ate so many strawberries he fell asleep right after lunch.
Isaac was left to stand guard over his sleeping friend while Bootsey and
Bobby Jo played tag on the lawn. "It's truly a fortunate thing I'm needed to stand guard. I do so hate being damp. The last time I was left out in the rain it was days before my fur dried out." Isaac remembered sadly. |
| As the little girls ran and laughed and played, Bootsey
stopped every once in a while to pick another flower for her bouquet.
Bobby Jo sat down on the picnic cloth to take off her shoes and stockings. She was worrying again. Isaac was right. The grass was wet, and now so were her new white shoes and stockings. "I 'ust hope it doesn't rain," she told Bootsey. |

Bootsey just laughed, and ran away to gather more flowers. It looks to me like the sky is getting darker |
