A Busy Fall. Help Needed!

Hey Gang!

It is a busy fall in Johnston! Harold has mostly worked solo. Apenimon and Ahiga have been able to help him out occasionally.

After being injured in the spring and not able to work for months, he realized help on occasionally wasn't working!

Harold fractured his ankle working alone and you would think he would be sad being out of work but that is not his nature.

He needs fulltime help. He calls a good friend who needs a new start! Harold waited at the train station for Cal and his kids to arrive.

Harold: Cal! Hey Man! It is good to see you! You have never been far from my thoughts.
Cal: it is good to see you too!

Harold: Look at this little sweetie! Is that a crown? Are you a princess? You are going to be a heart breaker!
Rita giggles.

Cal Jr. joins the group to greet Harold

Harold: Hey! Little Man...I guess I should say big guy! WOW, you have grown in the past two years!
Cal Jr. : Hello Mr. Hill! We haven't seen you in few years. I have gotten taller since then.

Cal Jr. shakes his hand.

The kids are a bit drained after such a long trip!

I've got a place for you guys to stay. It is small but cheap and clean. I know the Principal of the school and she is just waiting on a call for you and the school records for Cal Jr. to start. I've talked to my friend at the daycare and there is a spot open for Rita! The kids will need a Doctor's visit too. I've got you on the insurance plan so don't worry about that.

Let's get your luggage and put it in the van.

Cal: Hey, thanks so much for doing all of this. I feel like I've got so much to do!

Harold: No problem!

OK, Thanks For Looking!

More Horses!

Hey Gang!

This is one of the diorama I was working on a while back. I took pictures to see how

it photographed. I see some changes I can make and some things I want to do better.

I decided to post the photos along with a story anyway. I will work on the paddock

in the mean while. Here is the post for Thundercloud!

Ahiga and his wife have just moved to the Iroquois and Native American settlement.

Ahiga has always worked with livestock that is what he has come here to do.

So it's a warm day in Johnston and the horse were taken out to the paddock.

Ahiga brought out food to feed the horse with.

Ahiga: This is going to be a great day! I'm glad to have a break from the snow.

This will be a good day for the foal to come out and meet the other horses.

Water was add to the trough for them to drink.

Hello Buttercup!

You need a little exercise even though you've given birth.

Being a mommy has been good for you! You are not as jumpy.

She really wanted to get to the hay.

Hello little one!

Taffy came over for a pat.

Taffy doesn't come to many people but she comes to Ahiga .

Both horses went over to get a drink.

Midnight was also out for the day of sun.

Hey big fellow!

Midnight was really happy to be out.

Bison: Greetings

Ahiga: Greetings! So you made you way here!

How long have you been here?

Does the Chief know that you are here?

Bison: I just got here. I came directly to the paddock. Smiling, Bison

said and no! I would appreciate if you don't tell him I was here.

Ahiga: He is the Chief, so I can't promise that. He said with a slight twitch to his lips.

Bison: I have a favor to ask of you!

All the horse gathered around the water.

Bison: This is Thundercloud! He needs to be boarded while I travel.

Ahiga: He is a nice looking horse! A Roan!

Bison: I just picked him up. I purchased him a few months back but I have to

take a trip to the west coast.

Bison: I'll pay his board and I need him cared for until I come back!

I have his papers and records with me for you.

Ahiga: I guess you have shows..... And when you come back?

Bison: I will deal with things when I come back!

Ahiga: You put me on in a spot! Ok, the horse can stay!

Bison: Hear that fellow, you got a home with friends.

You know there will always be a place for you here!

Bison: Yeah, I know!

Ahiga: We are not the only new members here. You should meet them.

Bison: Yeah OK.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Lots To Do!

Hey Gang!

Apenimon is finding that he has a lot to do!

He has a long list of things that he need to get accomplished!
I have to make another sofa, two desks, three artist stalls, four beds, a clock,
some chairs....

He doesn't think he can get it done by himself.

Apenimon: Man, that's a long list!

He thinks he will need some help and might have to call in a few favors.

He calls his his old friend Ahiga. Ahiga came to stay a few days and is probably
having breakfast at the longhouse.
Apenimon: Hey can you come out to the stall and give me a hand?

He know he will need some skilled labor too so he calls Harold, one of his old
military buddies,

Ahiga show up with a thermos of coffee.
Apenimon: Thanks for coming! You brought coffee too! Great!

Ahiga: No problem! Glad to help! Rae sent the coffee.

Apenimon: I have a long list of things I need to do for here.
Ahiga: It is quite interesting to see how things run around here.
Apenimon: You and your wife should think about moving here! I would love to
have you both here. I know Rae would too!
