Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for June 06, 2016

Well, Bev…. no matter what Sparky thinks…. I think a LOT of people are going….

Aaron is ready….

Marcia needs a place to display her handiwork….

And Ted needs a more appropriate venue…

There are even going to be some unexpected guests….

The hats on Ballard Street must be very tasty….

But I’ll take my chances and wear my favorite hat…..well, actually, I don’t have a real favorite…but the Monkey sure likes this one….

Susan, the song goes: Whatever Monkey wants, Monkey gets…

This is too easy:Stel, just for you:Linguist, one for you::Bev, is this your color? Rose how about this one after you come back from the woods:

@beviek, AKA The Swan of TuonelaThat is one fine lid!

I would urge Bob not to discontinue fancy hat night after this one little incident. Sparky simply didn’t approve of the chapeau Bob had selected for him.

Sparky’s moment of millenary misbehavior is all Bob’s fault !This was supposed to be Sparky’s turn to sport the ten gallon Stetson. No self-respecting cattle driven’ canine of Sparky’s pedigree should be forced to wear a fedora with flowers. He was embarrassed and enraged to say nothing of humbled and humiliated ! Bob’s lucky that Sparky aimed his anger at the artificial asters and avoided attacking Bob’s ample posterior avoirdupois !

A tip of the ole Ling’s hat to ya Dennis

This sort of thing is old hat to Sparky.

That was the correct thing to do!!

I’d better just post the song for the young’ns:a fun version
