Treasure on the Trail

25 Jun

Tiny florescent yellow ball among red rocksThis is really awesome! This is so cool!

Yesterday I found a money tree on my trails and today a found a pearl.

A trail pearl.

How many people find pearls on trails?

My person says pearls are usually found near the ocean. In something called oysters.

I’ve never seen the ocean and I have no clue what an oyster is.

But I do know that pearls are valuable and I’ve found one. Right here on my trails.

Now I’ve got to figure out what to do with my trail pearl.

I’ve got lots of money to buy all the treats I want from the money tree I found.

So I’m going to have to use this pearl to buy something special.

Like maybe a trip to the ocean so I can find some more pearls.

Or better yet, why don’t I just bring the ocean here. I’ll build a swimming pool in my backyard and put oysters in it.

And I can go swimming anytime I want.

And have pool parties too. I could invite all my dog friends over for pool parties.

With lots of treats that I bought with all the money from my money tree.

What, person?

What do you mean that’s not a pearl? Of course it’s a pearl.

What else could it be?

They’re what?

All over my yard in different colors?

You mean I’m really rich? I have different colored pearls in my own yard?

I wonder which color is worth the most. Probably the one I found on my trails because it’s so pearly looking.

What do you mean my younger person left those pearls in my yard? Is my younger person rich and I didn’t know it?

Airsoft pellets? What are those?

Are they anything like pearls?

Little plastic pellets from an airsoft gun? And they’re hardly worth anything?

I don’t believe you person. You’re just saying that so you can keep all the pearls to yourself.

I’ll be out looking for more pearls.

You can’t fool me.

    Don’t listen Bongo, of course they are valuable! That photo of you envisioning the abundant future, is something else. Congrats to your person for this beautiful shot! As for the pearls… now you can travel across the ocean for some fresh fish and fly back anytime you wish [rhymes too!]!

      Marina, I’m booking my flight now. Woo woo! And my person says thanks for liking the photo of me. She says she was searching through old photos of me and it was one she’d never used.

      Benny & Lily, I can’t figure out why my person thinks it’s not. Sometimes I think she doesn’t know anything.

    OH WOW BONGO – this little oinker is so excited that I’m just snorting like crazy and wagging my little tail. Those rocks – they could be some relatives of Bashful, my pet rock. 🙂 XOXO – Bacon

      Bacon, you’ve got a pet rock that looks like my trail rocks? You should bring Bashful here for a walk on my trails. Bashful would have lots and lots of friends.

        Oh yes. You should check out my blog. Bashful does field trips all of the time. He’s quite the rolling stone 🙂 He would have a ball playing with you.. if he didnt talk your ear off first. XOXO – Bacon

      Lola, that’s a great idea. I could make earrings and sell them and really be rich.

    I’m sure that’s a pearl. You are a millionaire. But please don’t invite me to your pool party. I’m afraid of water. It’s too much like a bath. I’m pretty sure Mom is trying to kill me when she gives me a bath.

    Love and licks,

      Cupcake, I’ll have a not pool party that you can come to. The only water we’ll have is what we’re gonna drink.

    Whoa. That thing looks fancy, Bongo! I am pretty sure your person is totally holding out on you. OR. Maybe she is going to use the pearl to build that nice swimming pool for you as a surprise!?! I hope that’s it 🙂

      Kevin, come on over and join my pool party. It wouldn’t be right without you there. I found some more pearls on the trail so I can even share one with you.

    I cannot understand why your person is so pessimistic and defeatist – at least in connection with your discoveries. You are one of the greatest treasure hunters and explorers.

      Thanks Kolytyi. I think my person wanted those pearls to herself so she could get her own treats. I’m not buying it.
