Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 16, 2017

It didn’t take the three little pigs long to find new homes after the wolf incident.

Well, yes, walking your pinkie pigs with blue necklaces all at the same time, I guess you would find each other! Good to see you Ballardians finding common ground! (Note-these seem to be a younger generation).

Now, those are three Ballard Street-ers with sty-le.

They look so sweet……..and delicious.

are those supposed to be dogs or pigs???

I am speechless.

I wonder if James Bond was so lucky when he was out walking his rat.

Incredible timing! Yesterday I saw a gentleman walking his pig in my neighbor hood. I immediately thought of Michael J. Fox walking his pig in “Doc Hollywood”. I guess I really do live on Ballard St.

I used to know the people in the area that had dogs, but our middle-mutt barks at all other dogs, so no conversations.

Mmmm…

Pulled pork!

They’re on their way to Ballard’s Bacon Recreation Area ( commonly known as Piggy Park ) where porcine pets can play and pal around.

While you’ll see lots of pleasant pygmy porkers at the park, occasionally, you might find a big boar going whole hog and acting like a swine.

My own stoat, Stewart, is a real cut up, and likes to ham it up for the little trotters. You can usually find him hanging out by the mud wallow or taking the cure in the pig pool.

It looks like they’re sharing a single outfit. Could someone have broken it up to make more money on the pieces?

The Ballard bacon club.

There must have been a special at the Ballard Pig in a Poke. but obviously there is a shortage of pokes. Paper and plastic.Must have been because of the Poke Salad Festival over at Annie’s. Of course Annie’s Vegetarium is closed for a few days after the tragedy…..a gator got her granny.

There’s a cure for that.
