It was a cool but beautiful day when Nibbles arrived in our fair town of Melissa, Texas. We were a bit late getting to the post office, and when we got there, we found Nibbles patiently waiting on us.
The first thing he did upon arrival was meet our new real buddy Koko. She’s a long-haired Chihuahua that was given to us (more about Koko later). Koko loved Nibbles and Nibbles loved Koko.
We asked Nibbles if there was anything special she wanted to do while visiting us, and right away she let us know with a great deal of exuberance, that she wanted to go sight seeing. We warned her there wasn’t much to see in Melissa, but Nibbles insisted. So, we took her to see the Fire Station, and the local park. That about summed up the town sights; but Nibbles fell in love with the park, so that was lucky for us. Here she is sliding down the BIG slide:
And she absolutely loved climbing atop Big Foot the green dragon.
Then, she spotted the Basketball courts and threw a hissy fit because I wouldn’t play her a game of HORSE. So… the husband initiated a game of one on one and that appeased Nibbles.
Then, Nibbles spotted the cars and promptly hopped into one and away she went! We screamed and hollered for her to come back, “Come back Nibbles! Nibbles, come back!” on account she didn’t have a license and all, but she wouldn’t listen. She just stepped on the accelerator and faster she went!
We got tired of waiting for her to come back, so we gave up and decided to go on home and hoped Nibbles would be able to find her way back. A short while later, Tom (one of our three police officers) showed up on our driveway with errant Nibbles in tow:
He gave her a citation for driving without a license and gave us a severe scolding for allowing her to drive without a license. What ever!
And that was the end of Nibbles’ Adventure in Melissa Land. The End.
