One day, the guineas escaped and were wandering around the neighbor. Of course, I got in the car and was driving around looking for them when I spotted them up in a tree in someone's front yard. Those of you who have heard the noise that guineas make would know that it was making quite the racket...These guys are better than watch dogs..believe me! Anyway, I'm rolling down the window to call to them when the "lady" of the house opens the front door wearing her robe and rollers- complete with the fuzzy high heeled slippers and screams at her DH " Harold, Harold!!! Come quick, there are TURKEYS in our tree!!! Call the police!!!"

As soon as I can quit laughing, I roll up the window and silently creep by..... LOL!!!
O.M. gosh, patty,...that is hysterical!!! Did any of the guineas get arrested?

LOL Jeanine and mouse...I have NO idea what happened...I LEFT! Remember, this was a really "ritzy" neighborhood! Its the type of town where now they have a law about how tall your grass in your yard can grow! Do ya'll really think I was going to hang around to do any 'xplainin"????

Piggies are soo cute though, well the little ones are. My neighbors weren't too cute when they were digging up MY yard!

That's such good news, I can't wait to see the blocks I get in return. I'm making a wall hanging for my 2 yr old grandson. :-)
