Day Four at Cockatoo Camp

Thursday, June 13, 2002 – Day 4
Leigha has a tad of a hangover from the big Western Bash last nite...
Oh my
aching arches..I danced and did the too step all night long..Some one sang a new
song..10 rounds with Jose Cuervo..and Merlin and I thought they were
serious..Dat worm didn't taste good at all..
Shalom and Darwin will get t-shirts just cause they didn't get to come due to
human error..OK..
Today we'll have the tiel toss and the badkitten champsionships..Casper donated
a large collection of his mamma's painting for the auction..that was sooo
generous of him..not only did he donate those..but he threw in some Eric Peake's
and a Beverly Doolittle.. He is determined to make this auction a big success..
Tonight the music will be Rock and Roll...Well I'd better go get some rest..big
day ahead..we're all going on a hike..then horseback riding..then we'll finish
the day with the big pizza party..The girls sure did look nice in their little
gingham dresses last night..Miss Frances won the Dolly Partoon lookalike
contest..Vavavavooom.....

I had my sleepy cage, an her hair wasn' wed. What's goin on at yer house while

Leigha picks it up, too!
When I called home this morning..my dad said that mommy was heading for St. Louie..I don't even know where that is..and why would she be going there.. it's not even in the south..Ohmy ohmy ohmy oh my.....Oh well..time to go golfing..
Auntie Cathy tries to calm them down.
It's okay
Leigha. Yer mama isn't going to be gone long. She might even be back before you
get home from camp.
So enjoy your stay at camp and don't worry about a thing. Yer mom just wants to
drive up for some toasted ravioli. Auntie Cathy
