Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for April 03, 2023

Elmer mistrusts Edna’s look…especially when she is reading that book.

There’s trouble brewing as Mabel and Martin sink deeper into the depth of Ballard dementia

Edna will take Elmer out hunting with her…then give him a half-hour head start.

Edna is certainly enjoying that book. Can anyone make out the subtitle?

RUN!

Edna can’t read but the book is well illustrated & Elmer is beginning to get the picture…

Love the look on her face! Well, just complementing Jerry for his artistic skill.

It looks like an enjoyable book.

Elmer is experiencing feelings of creeping trepidation.

Good morning Balladeers!

She’s sick of his boorish ways!

“Aw, Edna, can’t we just have dinner without playing ‘The Hunger Games’?”

Her husband keeps an eye on her reading habits…………..

Umm.. if you share a bedroom consider sleeping with one eye open and maybe hide the kitchen knives.

Mel remains wary as he knows the hunter-gatherer instinct is strong in Doris.

Elmer doesn’t trust Edna one iota.

Heh, heh, heh. :)

Apparently, not a real book…

“… But when hunter meets with husbands, each confirms the other’s tale —

The female of the species is more deadly than the male…" ………..Kipling

Edna and Elmer will go out hunting soon, Only one will come back. It won’t be Elmer.
