Baba and Mag showing their mutual respect and affection for each other the only way they know how. Being a bit cranky, but we all know it’s a put-on. And I’d love to hear the stories behind Baba’s postcards? hanging on her wall.
I love it. ❤ Baba’s wall reminds me of my Grandma Rael’s wall of yore. :) I adore Burt’s bashful modesty and humility. A great debt of gratitude goes to Burt for the happy outcome of the mole upheaval.
I actually can’t think of anything he did to contribute to the war. Except to whisk Puck and OZ and Iggy out of harm’s way when the moles were in the basement. Did he ever even meet Queen Mags?
I like how the heart-shaped pendulum on her clock is centered over her head – can kinda’ read into it that she loves her award – and her wall and bookshelf of mementos.
A floppy disk as an award for Burt is honestly very fitting! Though I do sort of wonder where the raccoons got it, because they’re not exactly common anymore and not something you’d expect to find in the trash too often these days (heck, I’d sooner expect people to hang onto them as collector items nowadays because of it).
The detail Georgia sometimes puts in is scary (fun). How many countries can you identify from those tiny postcards? Unless they’re old expired ATM cards.
Georgia, a dumb technical question, if i may. Are you able to re-use Baba’s house “set” or did you have to re-draw again from scratch? it looks the same from May 22, 2016 except the far right is cut off so we’re missing a few postcards and trophies. love it, no matter how you did it!
OT: Just finished Robert’s book, and . . . won’t spoil anything, but . . . Scaeva dear. You should definitely read it. There’s something special for you at the end. WINK (ミゝᆽ・ミ)
If anyone knows, could someone please list the types of cats that all the characters are? I know Elvis is a Siamese, but that’s about it. It would be helpful b/c I’m putting this story arc into novel form. Thanks!

Just yesterday mornin’, she finished up before dawn
Queen Mag, her hands had made some clever “thank you”’s
She walked out this morning to greet two smart and so strong
She’ll never forget all those who aided raccoons
Oh, she’s got wire and bits of chain
Making bling you’d never thought were odds and ends
She gave lovely things to heroes to thank and to commend
And they’re always glad to help out once again
So many good things coming their way this time around, now
Nice to see peace, and the war cease, hope it remains, now

Crud, blurry screen again. Baba and Mags really respect and, dare I say, love each other. Just two crusty old gals.

The Moody Blues: The Story In Your Eyes
I’ve been following this story
And I believe that all is well as it ends
For we know that we can all rely
On our new friends.
And the plans we make together
Is the music to the story we have heard
We’ve been watching now and cheering on
With every word!
…….
Listen to the story we’re beholding
Standing strong and never go astray
We’re part of the plan that’s unfolding
As the sun is dawning on a new day!
…….
Have no fear for our children
For our efforts are not gonna be in vain
And we will be there for everyone
In sun or rain!
…….
With the final medal awarded
And it’s certain that the battle has been won
We can all relax and enjoy more stories
From Georgia Dunn!

Heroes never do it for the medals. In fact, they do not know why they are called heroes. They just did what needed doing.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile
Lupinium: That was a busy weekend. I think I’ll need a whole week to recover.
Wicket: Then you wouldn’t be up for a round of one-on-one hoops at the Owl Temple this Saturday?
Lupinium: On the other paw, I can revive very quickly.
Wicket: And did I mention Obadiah Opossum’s cousin from Down Under is serving a proper Australian buffet then?
Lupinium: Did I say I was tired? I meant to say my wagon needed new tires.
Wicket: Great see you Saturday.
