Red Mr. Peanut Bank Well, here we are, in the beautiful Trinity Alps!
Gallito Mescalito ¡Shriek!
Ida Hedgehog So, what is this place, anyway?
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love We're at Padre and the Lovely Mona's Ancestral Manse. Isn't it beautiful?
Ida Hedgehog It looks like two trailers in the Odd Fellows Camp to me!
Gallito Mescalito ¡Shriek!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Now we're in the forest. I liked standing on that deck (which Padre actually built!) but it's more comfortable here in the woods.
Ida Hedgehog Not too many bugs, ya know?
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love But, lawdy, it is HOT! I remember when I used to soak in the Nile on days like this!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank There certainly are temperature swings here! It's 40ºF in the morning and then 110ºF in the afternoon.
Gallito Mescalito ¡¡Shriek!!
Ida Hedgehog It must be around 90-some-degrees right now!
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Lord, I know! I'm about ready to wilt. What can we do?
Moments Later
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Hey, you guys! Come on down here! It's nice and cool!
Temporary continuity problem
Gallito Mescalito ¡Shriek!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Yes! Where are you?
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love I'm down here at the creek! Come on down!
Señorita Chompita Wiggletail, the Cutest Dog in All the Americas™ Hey, Hippo! Ya want me to bring 'em down here? Huh? Huh? I'll git 'em!
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Well, thank you, sweet doggy! Please escort my silly friends down here.
Señorita Chompita Wiggletail, the Cutest Dog in All the Americas™ Yeah, yeah, yeah; I'll go get 'em!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Ooh, it is nice and cool down here! The breeze blows off the water in the creek, which was snow only hours ago!
Gallito Mescalito ¡Shrieky-shriek-shriek-shriek!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank You're right; this rock is precarious, but at least we're cool!
Ida HedgehogOh yeah, baby! This is nice and cool! My quills are standing up!!!
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Well this water was snow just hours ago!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Hey, I'm having some trouble keeping my balance here.
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Please! How bad can it be?
Ida Hedgehog Really, dude. It's not like there is any wind. It's a gentle breeze!
Gallito Mescalito ¡Shriek!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!! THIS WATER IS COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gallito Mescalito¡¡¡¡SSSSHHHRRRRIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKK!!!!!
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THERE, BANK???
Señorita Chompita Wiggletail, the Cutest Dog in All the Americas™ HOLD ON. I'LL GET HIM!!!!
Moments Later
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Oh Chompita. ¡Muchisimas Gracias!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Well, I'm okay.
Los otros YAY!!!
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Perhaps we should be a bit more cautious near the creek!

Oh yes! We don't want the gang up the creek.
Miss Chompita saves the day. Good girl.
Perhaps you ought loan out your rock to the Archbishop of Canterbury...he´s a master a slippery slopes and he can perfect his downward slide (keep the salvavidas in Panama)...not to worry, it´s shallow, ++Rowan likes shallow.
