The New Little Town

“I'm an old cowhand,” said Midge as she skipped over to Booker-T's house. “From the Rio Grande.”

“Who is from the Rio Grande?” asked Booker-T as Midge entered the yard. “I hear you singing about someone.”

“Some cowhand is from the Rio Grande,” said Midge. “Did your owner watch the news last night?”

“No,” said Booker-T. “Was the guy from the Rio Grande on the TV and where is the Rio Grande?”

“I don't know where it is,” said Midge. “They were singing the song on TV last night when they did the show about the new Western Town that they are making.”

“What is a cowhand?” asked Booker-T.

“I don't know,” said Midge. “Maybe Jake knows. Lets go to his house and go see how they are doing with the western town.”

“Do you know any more of the song?” asked Booker-T as they walked along the sidewalk.

“Lets see,” said Midge. “I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grand. But my legs ain't bowed and my cheeks ain't tan.”

Fun Things To Do

“Hey Jake!” called Booker-T as he and Midge came through the gate at Jake's house.

“What are you doing?” called Midge as they walked to the porch where they found Jake laying on the swing.

“Hi you two,” smiled Jake. “What are you doing?”

“We are coming to see you,” said Midge. “What do you want to do today?”

“I don't know,” said Jake. “What do you want to do?”

“I don't know either,” said Booker-T.

“Let me think,” said Midge. “I'm sure we could find something to do. We always do.”

Lets Go Flying

Midge was sitting on the front porch waiting for Booker-T to come to the house so they could walk to Jake's house together. Suddenly Jake came running into the yard and hurried to the porch.

“What are you doing Jake?” asked Midge. “Why are you in such a hurry?”

“We should go to the Big hills near the farm,” said Jake.

“What is over there?” asked Midge.

“They are flying over there,” said Jake. “I heard it on the TV last night when my owner was watching a movie.

“Who are flying?” asked Midge. “Can we go fly too?”

“I don't think they will let us fly with them,” said Jake. “We can go watch them.”

“Who are flying?” asked Booker-T as he joined Midge and Jake on the front porch.
