Am I happy?
Why, I’m happy as a bug on the bow of a boat! Have ya ever watched a grasshopper at the bow
of a boat, when the ol’ steamer is churning along at a good clip, the hull is
pounding the cobalt blue water into a fine spray and the shore is sailing by;
and that ol’ grasshopper is clinging to the railing for dear life, his little
antennae are trailing in the wind, his molars are all catching sunlight, his
eyes are glazed over and glistening in grateful satisfaction, and the tobacco
juice is streaming out the corners of his mouth and collecting in his whiskers
and his ears? Now that’s happy!
I've posted the first
18 chapters of Obie's Quest to this blog. Just click
the year 2012, then the month February, and then scroll down to the post of
February 13th. Once you've read through chapter 8, simply click OLDER
POSTS to read chapters 9 through 18. Smile and be happy!
