Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 17, 2015

My goodness Willamina is such a downer!

Not quite as pretty as Francois’s sheep, But we’ll give Gary points for size.Francois and Willamina have been here since 1957, you wouldn’t think he was still so hung up on sheep.

Wilhelmina’s criticism’s fall on deaf ears…

François refuses to be deterred…. in fact, he doesn’t even feel sheepish….Well, yeah. sheep-ish maybe, but not sheepish… you know?

I don’t know. I’ve heard there are rustlers about.

Thank you, Rose….

Sorry it’s so late… I woulda bought you a daiquiri, or whatever…but I spaced out watching those sheep.

I never get board with them…wood ewe?.

Come on Shirley, get on your dots and get with the program. What a romance moment, alone in the pastures of plenty in paradise. Nothing but high skies and cool mountain breezes. The sound of the wind through the trees, the distant horizons fading to purple shadowed by the clouds of a far away storm. OK, I get it the beret is a little over the top, but it’s Walter and it’s Ballard Street and it’s poopless sheep, doesn’t get much better than this.

Come home Ruth. We miss you.

Must be where they get wrinkle-free wool..(At least it’s not a creepy as those boneless chickens.)

@SusanSunshineSusan, over at Ten Cats we think you are in touch with Ruth Wet and Soggy. If our info is correct, have you heard from her since her stroke, and how is she doing? Thanks from all of us at Ten Cats.

He’s just basqueing in the sun, leaning on the tree.

That just makes it easier.

Watch out for those cardboard wolves……I heard Wile E Coyote may be about……he smashes so nicely.

Looks to be the beginning of another yarn.

Well, of course they aren’t going anywhere! He’s got them under complete control. Duh!

Lamb kebobs?

I herd that Gary liked to pull the wool over Willemina’s eyes, but she put a stop to that with a left hook from her own staff.

@ HappyThanks for posting my stamp. lol!SOMEONE, who shall remain nameless, deleted the record labels, so of course my replies don’t make sense.but then, I rarely make cents anyhow. :-)Sometimes I make 2 bits, but that is another story.!

My search for suitable vehicles has been expanded because of a comment by someone on GoComics. It was suggested that retired government vehicles might be an option, so i decided to ask the local county (Lincoln County, Oregon) when/where they auction off old equipment. They told me tat everything is sold off through two web sites. GovDeals.com ( http://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm ) Public Surplus ( http://www.publicsurplus.com )All of it quite worn, but it IS possible that something serviceable could pop up.Its a slight chance, but one that i can’t ignore. So, I’m going to be looking in from time to time.Anything Oregon, Southern Washington, or Northern California is within distance for me. Given the time off to go look.

I have 18 hours to bid. I sent to fond out what the door width is, the door height is, what the inside head room is, and what the square space size is.If i get the info back in time, and my clients chairs will fit, i will bid on it.You are right. I have a mechanic that can drop in a new engine. And if i can GoFundMe for the funds, more than what i have to do it, i could end up with a serviceable vehicle sooner.And, my mechanic could find out what is “Rattling” and fix it without an engine change.Thanks dude!

Mist said, 18 minutes agoFrancois had real sheep before, but then this happened

Now he has sheep-on-a-stick.____________________
