She Said No Movie

The three friends had been walking around the farm while they told the story of Donk and Abilene. They missed them, but they had built up the number of animal friends a lot in the last few years. They had a lot of goats that they enjoyed. Some of them were mini goats. One they showed Cheryl was a little stinker. His name was Frost because he was born on a cold winter day. He like to head-but them during feeding time or any time he decided to have a little fun. He would go after the feed in the bucket as well as the hay. Their dog, Mika, loved the alpacas and goats too. They had been friends since he was a puppy.

Cheryl enjoyed the goats and the alpacas, especially Butters, the cream colored alpaca, but she still felt some nostalgia when she saw an old old picnic table out in the yard that was overgrown with grass and trees. She had fond memories of that picnic table when she was a child. Such wonderful memories.
 Oh and they still had some old farm machinery too." Oh those bring back such fond memories for me," she thought.

She suddenly had a great idea. "You guys! You could be famous. The story about Donk.  All of these wonderful animals, my memories, your memories. I could sell this to a movie production company. I just know I could. We all would make lots and lots of money. We could be famous!"

About that time they looked over by the fence. The brother's grandmother was feeding some little goats. Oh she loved them. Sometimes she held them on her lap and enjoyed their company. She was a good friend to them and they to her.

Mrs. Anderson heard what the young woman had said and shook her head. "Oh my goodness. We are famous in our own right. We are good friends with our neighbors. Everyone waves and smiles when they see us in town. They call us by name and invite us into their homes for coffee sometimes. We do the same. We always welcome visitors to our family farm to come and meet our animals. But no movie, my dear. However, you are welcome to write a story about our farm if you would like. Maybe some people would read it. Maybe it would even get published and eventually wind up in our library where Sharon works."

 "Oh I would like that. You could use some pictures of our animals. Maybe a children's story. Yes, I think it would make a nice children's story. We are so glad you came back to visit us, my dear. Oh by the way, I just got a telephone call from Grandma Lu. She is telling the children at Marleewood all about alpacas and explaining something very important to them as well. You might want to pay them a visit. They are right across the street from where Mary Owens used to live. Remember her?"
