Midge and Booker-T ran through the gate into Jake's front yard and found Jake napping on the front porch swing.
“Hey Jake!” called Midge. “Jake! Wake up!”
Jake blinked his eyes and saw Midge and Booker-T standing at the porch.
“What are you guys doing?” asked Jake.
“We came to get you so we can go to the farm,” said Midge.
“Did you forget?” asked Booker-T.
“Forget what?” asked Jake.
Stormy walked to the platform that the owner built that would help young kids climb on top of the horses.
“Get on the platform, Midge,” said Stormy. “Then you can climb on my back.”
“You don't have a saddle on you,” said Midge. “Do I need the saddle?”
“No,” said Stormy. “Lot of people ride horses with no saddles.”
Midge climbed the few steps to the top of the platform and walked to the edge where Stormy stood waiting for Midge to climb on his back. She jumped on top of his back and sat down.
“How do I hold on?” asked Midge. “There isn't a strap or saddle to hold on to.”
The four friends ran across the front yard of the farm house on their way to the pasture where they saw the horses standing around in front of the new stables with stalls for each horse.
“Hi guys,” said Lucy as they arrived at the stalls.
“Hi little one,” smiled the big brown horse. “You were in the truck, weren't you?”
“Yes,” said Lucy. “These are my friends. They came to meet you.”
“I like horses,” smiled Booker-T.
“Thank you,” said the big brown horse.
Booker-T walked to Midge's house next door. He hurried through the gate and ran to the back yard of the house. In the back, he crawled through the doggie door into the kitchen.
“Hey Midge!” called Booker-T. “Where are you ?”
“Hi Booker-T,” said Snappy as he saw him enter the living room from the kitchen.
Booker-T ran and jumped into the chair next to the tank and climbed to the top of the tank and look inside.
“Hi Snappy,” greeted Booker-T.
“What are you doing?” asked Snappy.
Midge was sitting on the front porch when Booker-T walked over and sat down beside her.
“Hi Booker-T,” smiled Midge. “What are you doing?”
“I'm sitting here with you,” said Booker-T.
“I see that,” laughed Midge. “What else are you doing?”
“I don't know,” said Booker-T. “Just sitting here doing nothing with you.”
“What are we going to do today?” asked Midge.
“I don't know,” said Booker-T. “Don't you have an idea?”
