I also told OneHand earlier in the week that this weekend we would have to build a fence for Mystical because she had gotten away too far from her area in the night and couldn't find her way back until daylight , so she needs to be fenced in at night .. but during the day she can be out as long as one or more of the Runnin brothers is with her,, YEP They all were Busy indeed this morning! When I got home from work I changed into my yard work clothes,, went around to gather some willys to get busy ,, the first thing I saw was this,,, They had put up a New Garden Arch welcoming any and all Very Nice Archway Willys!! To my ultimate amazement the 4 Runn'in Brothers had built the fence and had it completed and Painted Unbelievable ! ANDDDDDDDD planted a Tree!! You all remember Mystical don't you? She was granted to OneHand From a Fairy at CedarHill. Seems she has a little companion friend now,Awwwww How Sweet!! :wink: Next Post I am really REALLY amazed!!!!!

He was especially proud of one in particular that grew a squash bigger and better that Most humans He'd seen,, and Trust Me He has been around a LONG LONNNNG time! This wee Willy was assigned only to hoe the weeds and make sure the watering was done appropriately . However He had found a seed that somehow got dislodged from the soil so he kept it and sowed it in another area so noone would find it and he 'tended to it carefully!! Boy oh Boy has he ever proven himself to be promoted from weeder to sower and attendant!! Just look at his prize squash!!!!!!! Grand Poobah gave him an immediate promotion!! Everywhere I looked I saw more willys bringing in a harvest.... "Grace without perfection is more to be desired than perfection without grace."
