I’ve been finding some strange things in the parking lot of my trails lately.
Take this vehicle for instance.
What in the world would anyone be bringing kayaks to my trails for?
There’s no water anywhere on my trails.
Well, sometimes my puddle is there but it’s been missing for a long time.
And sometimes the wash gets filled if it’s been raining a lot.
But even then, I don’t think I’d want to take a kayak down it.
Those kayaks would scrape bottom and probably get big holes in them – and then they’d sink.
Well no, I guess they wouldn’t sink.
The water isn’t deep enough.
.
I decided to give up on why those kayaks would be anywhere near my trails when I ran across another mystery.
This is even worse than kayaks.
There’s not a single window on my trails.
Well, I did see a piece of broken glass – but it didn’t need washing.
I think these two vehicles are in cohorts with each other.
But that might depend on if a man or a woman is driving that car.
I might have to wait to find out who shows up because I’m not sure if the driver is a Window Man or a Wind Woman.
If it’s a Wind Woman I might never find out.
She may have blown away.

While I was busy contemplating what had happened to the Wind Woman I saw something else.
And I’ve got a serious problem with the driver of this car.
I guess you can claim most of the earth for yourself…
But these trails are mine!
Got it?
Mine!

That’s right Bongo… you tell that driver how those are your trails! You come every day to visit them, you water them, you keep them flower free, and you marvel at their beauty. Heck, you even get to have play dates with your friends there sometimes!

Kimberly and Wall-E, I’m not sure what that person was thinking. Do they think they own the whole earth?

Well no one can own all of earth! I believe that is Mother Nature who can claim that.

Bongo if you need a couple of big mean cats to drive them away, just say the word.

I have to put up with one cat already – and he doesn’t do anything to help me.

puzzling Bongo.. The wind woman may have made it to the US the way the wind has been. Also how dare anyone claim the earth for themselves. Do we have to ask them permission to do our business on their earth?

Fredrieka, I think we may have to straighten that person out – or at least take away his license plate.

Bongo I don’t think you should ever leave your house without your detective hat. You find mysteries everywhere!

FireBonnet, you’re right. I might have to start taking that hat everywhere. I’m trying to get my person to get me a backpack full of treats. Maybe I could eat a few of those treats and then stick my hat in there too.

That sounds like a great plan!

Hmmm, I wonder if the window man is building a watering hole for the kayaks

Lily, I sure hope so – because that would be a great swimming hole for me.

Your trails are very busy today! Kayaks and window guys and the actual guy who owns the EARTH! Wow! You might need a MYTRAILS license plate of your butt….
Love and licks,

Cupcake, I thought of that but it might get in the way of me doing my business. I’ll have to figure out something else.

Maybe these people read your blog and are checking your trails out because you make them sound so inviting. I can’t figure out why they would bring kayaks and window washing equipment.

Patricia, most of the people on my trails are normal – but sometimes we get some really strange ones.

Wowsers, Bongo too many mystery people are going on your trail you have got to really do some serious investigating if it keeps up. They may be lost and need you to help them find their way off your trail. That is one strange car tag, we don’t think anyone can have the earth all to themselves, do you? Hugs and nose kisses

Chancy and Mumsy, no one could possibly have to earth all to themselves – especially since those trails are mine. I might have to show them where the big hole on my trails is. Once they’re in it they won’t be able to get out – and then no one will have to worry about them stealing the earth.

No water – well I guess that’s why the kayaks are on top of the car getting a ride. The arrogance of that person claiming the entire earth is something – maybe you should mark that license plate.

Diane and Lola, I think those people with the kayaks made a mistake. They brought them from Washington where there’s lots of water to Arizona where there’s hardly any. Do you think I should tell them? Or maybe I should leave them alone and water that other plate.

Excactly, Bongo! Now let’s rock the boat 😉

Little Binky, if they’re not going to use that boat maybe we can go for a ride in it.

Oh NO!!! What a impolite human the driver is!!! Who does he/she think he/she is!!! grrrrr….We all know it’s YOUR trails or we might not get these interesting adventure stories!
We have to find the owner of the car and get him/her out of there!
P.S. Kayaks is really mystery….why they are there….???

Kevin, the license plate on the vehicle with the kayaks is from Washington State. I think the drivers are confused. There’s lots of water in Washington. They should have left their kayaks there. As for that other driver that think’s he owns the earth – he’s got another think coming.

Yes, Bongo, YOURS!!!!!!!! Maybe you should make your own plate with it: MY TRAILS!!!! 🙂

Marina, that’s a good idea. Now I just have to get a car to put it on.
