..but the slot machine!.... Vegas?? He tells me his last stop was Reno, Nevada...
but so far he's tight lipped. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas?....
Have you seen "The Hangover"?....
You can't get anything out of a Gnome that he doesn't want to give up...
So I put him to work for the remainder of the evening...

and then chores around the farm...
We did some egg gathering and Roamy talked with the girls about poultry prices in Denmark
Next was feed time at the barn...
Roamy watered the horses while we mucked stalls
He and Opie talked about the current political climate,
deep groans and heavy sighs were all I could hear...
..and when barn chores were done, Graduate girl and Roamy
had a heart to heart about the trials and tribulations of joining the adult world
and finding your way, one step at a time.
Roamys favorite quote by Martin Luther King Jr.
