Poor Lizards

I planted a small bush next to our lamp post in the front yard. The leaves are supposed to turn purple in the summer. It was purple when I bought it. The problem was that it was so happy where I planted it and grew so fast that it had to be trimmed all the time. The outside leaves that would have turned purple never had a chance. So what I had was a giant green bush. I just spent 2 hours carefully taking it apart. Mainly because it has huge thorns. Also because lizards were jumping off every little twig trying to find somewhere to go.

While I was doing this, a man came by walking his dog named Pooh. He told me that Walking Bones name is Flanagan.

  1. This was a suspenseful story. I thought the lizards were going to get chopped in half. I’ve heard of Walking Bones, but when I did a search on your blog for “bones” I couldn’t find a story about him. Didn’t you write about him before?
