Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for July 29, 2023

And a dangerous loon

She is also easily offended by very trivial things.

Practice for next time Ricky ‘splains something

That’s what I’ve always said.

That is one loopy lady. Yesterday she whacked Mr. Opeldingle on the…um…he had stopped to tie his shoe. She snuck up behind him and WHACK. Mr. Opeldingle flew through the air and landed in old Mrs. Krinklstein"s pansies!

Well, she’ll certainly leaf her mark.

You go, Lucy!

She’s going all out beating the bushes.

Snake!!!

I will admit that I kinda like Lucy’s new hairdo – very daring. Not that I would dare to go near and tell her right now, though…

This one cracks me up. My mother’s name was Lucy, and she loved to work in the yard. :)

Is that arc the swing of the stick? Or did a tree offend her?

looks like she’s hedging her bets

If Lucy doesn’t dial it back a little, she’ll be a Woman of Traction…

A very popular Ballard Street service, Lucy’s Raccoon-B-Gone, LLC.

What in the name of everything holy is she doing?

There’s not a hedge on Ballard St that has not felt Lucy’s wrath. Rumor has it that a squirrel once ran up her tights and then hid in a hedge. Vengeance will be hers..

Just don’t get too close to her and you’ll be fine.

Lucy practices her hedgemony.

Specifically, a “thwacker”. :)

Good morning Balladeers!

…a simple green keeper, now playing in the Masters…

She knows how to have a good time! :)

Lucy’s taking out her hostilities toward a hedge fund manager who didn’t do a great job with her investments.

Whack-a-mole takes on new heights.

when it comes to weed whackers, lucy’s always been pretty literal…

I swear you always make me laugh out loud HAHAHA

Interesting hand placement
