And so it began...



Nice of those city boys to come all the way out here and amuse the country folk, wasn't it? Goin' down the river? From here? Yep!
Now, the main strategy of this whole trip will be to make sure we don't try to "walk" on that brown stuff behind us - that's the water.
And by the way, we're going to have a few minor obstacles along the way... no real problem, just a place or two where we might have to stop and wonder what we're doing there.
We heard about these guys Alvin, they're the ones making the river all the way back to Possum Kingdom. I think Mr. Skunk told us about 'em, said they killed his wife or something.









Hey Jerry, I think I heard that there's some of the best field mouse hunting in this part of the country. Think we'll get lucky and bag one?









I dunno' Bob, the owls already ratted us out on killing the skunk. You know how these critters are, they'll be telling' everybody we even ate it for dinner!
