I walked quite a bit yesterday, we went to a couple of gold mining towns. I wanted to go to the railroad museum but more importantly the candy store.
You said ”I have chocolate cookies in the house, I better hide them before you and jake the duck1 grab them, better yet, I’ll put my guard dog in the kitchen.”
As far as hiding them goes I’m sure you realize there’s no place you could hide any of my favorite five food groups where I wouldn’t find them. As your vicious guard dog is concerned I’m convinced that he would much rather enjoy chomping on some nice fresh juicy steaks I’d bring him than chew on my poor old gnarled leather like pathetic carcass. However, before you invite me down for a visit there are some other essentials you'll need to stock up on like candy, candy & more candy, pies, cake (cheesecake is a favorite) but I've never met a cake or pie I didn't like. And an assortment of pastry. Keep walking kids!! Find a candy store, to walk to. It may be miserable walking to but the way you’ll feel walking back will more than make up for it.
keep on pounding the pavement,
Jake
