Wally’s Great Adventures #84 (Free Bird! Free Wally!)

Hello everyone. Wally here. Mom, Dad and I went for a walk to Cove Island Park this morning. You heard right, Mom & Dad & Wally. No shortage of tension here, with 2 opposite poles of the magnet pulling, and pulling mostly on me. Dad walks fast. Mom meanders. Dad doesn’t talk, NO talking. Mom chatters (and chatters). Dad walks off-road on rocks and beach. Mom sticks to path, paved paths only. Dad lets me run off leash. Mom chains me down and won’t let me get more than 3 feet from her. So, do you get the picture? Walks with dad are so great! And side note, this morning, after mom strapped the leash on me, I heard Dad grumbling lyrics to “Free Bird” (Lynyrd Skynyrd): “For I must be traveling on now ‘Cause there’s too many places I’ve got to see…Lord knows, I can’t change…Lord help me, I can’t change…Lord, I can’t change…Won’t you fly high, free bird, yeah.” Free Bird! Free Wally!

Tuesday’s Gone With The Wind


Train roll on, on down the line, (On a high-speed train going South)
Won’t you please take me far away? (To the tropics, far far down South)
Now I feel the wind blow outside my door, (Friggin’ Cold wind still blowin’)
Tuesday’s gone with the wind. (Give me gentle warm breezes)
Tuesday’s gone with the wind. (I’ll take hot and humid with no wind)
Train roll on many miles from my home, (To Miami, Hawaii or Costa Rica)
See, I’m riding my blues away. (And my blues are sure to drift away)
