Staynot Gladomeer (Thread 2)

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Ducks are welcome at my house. I have a lake for them to swim in--supervised of course. Wait a minute, Jojo, I HAVE a Canadian moose and his name is Murgatroid. He followed me home the last time I visited my niece in Ingersol. Have some geese to that flew down earlier.

I wanta see the jackalope too! Educate this Florida gal, please.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

Is Murgatroid a girl moose per chance?? This could turn into international intrigue in TX, romance in FL and ......

edit: oops Murgatroid is a boy duh

Glad you figured that one out! How would I know? No, I do think he is a boy. I am always getting little things like that from my niece. Then again, I am the aunt who spoils her when she comes each year!!!

Well it looks like Dave and Bullwinkle are hunting evil gopher varmits in SK. Geesh I hope the duck is safe :x Got any varmits that need handling LOL?

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

LOL I'll be sure to takeStaynot to visit the Jackalope. They are a rare native Texas creature, I do believe they are extinct or nearly extinct in the wild, with the only remaining individuals residing in local Ice Houses LOL

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Okay Jojo, I'm ready what is a jackalope!! New one on me!! Plenty of varmits here Dalhianut! Starting with the squirrels!!!

Portland, OR

Wow, I've never seen a train of thought this long on Dave's, although I haven't been around that long. I just need Staynot to arrive by the 2nd or 3rd of July so I can snap a couple pics and send him along quick, I don't know how well gnomes get along on Montana, but I have lots of mountain hiking to do and I don't know how well he will be able to keep up. I have to leave Portland on July 4th so if you think he won't arrive before then, maybe he can come see Portland later in the summer. I would hate for him to be stuck in one of those darned teleportation boxes on my porch for three weeks, then gnome lovers everywhere would track me down and hunt me like a dog to the ends of the earth, doesn't sound fun, my dog is reading this over my shoulder and he doesn't think it very funny either, so that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. So let me know if he'll arrive in time or not and we'll make other arrangements. Thanks y'all, let me know.

Portland, OR

P.S. I've personally observed an active population of jackalopes in the Bob Marshall wilderness in Montana and I'm going there to study them for a PBS special. They are the little heard of Northern Alpine Jackalope; maybe Staynot could come along and take some pop shots at them with his "Gnome 30-30" or maybe not.

Are those the ones that live with the sasquatch slipperman? I heard about that flock.

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Don't let him shoot the Jackalopes, I"m not sure gnomes would do well in jail! They are protected you know.

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Here ya go Marion, this should tell you all you need to know about jackalopes...

OOOOOOOOOkay!! Now I--nevermind!! Is it like our Swamptigers?

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

i will take staynot to see the wampus cats

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Oh my Kathy, Staynot is really in for some adventures.

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

LOL it's only right that a mythical creature gets to meet other so-called mythical creatures from across the US, this could get interesting LOL.
Depending on when Staynot gets to me, he may get to visit the Crescent City! I'm going to drop off the kids for a week with Grandma and Poppy. I promise not to let him drink too many Hand Grenades at Razoo's LOL

This is Hartwig...who is very lonely and can't wait to meet Staynot. Hartwig never gets to go anywhere, so he wants to talk to a well-travelled gnome.

He mainly hangs out in the tree and watches the comings and goings.

He loves flowers and has a nice bloom to give Staynot when he arrives.

Hartwig looks like he very content with his beaatiful garden. Is that a nasturtium in that first pic? It's lovely, mine are just plain orange. I thought they were prety till i saw that one LOL

scio, oregon, OR(Zone 8a)

He is happy but mad that I didn't take him to Hawaii with me. Next time I will. That is some kind of nastertium I got at the nursery.

Well you need to get Hartwig a dooe so he can come visit his friends in other places!
I love his face--so cute!! The flowers are wonderful. I am beginning to hate my shade!!!

Jojo you'd better take care of that boy when he comes. Oh, he is a boy, isn't he? Maybe a man? But then aren't men really boys and the only difference is the price of their toys? Sure thought so with my hubby and son!!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

.....and you blame him for being mad? I would be too!! LOL

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

LOL did you bring him a grass skirt? That is an awesome nasturtium, if you ever get any extra seeds, I would love to have a couple. I would be happy to send postage. I love the old fashioned flowers, reminds me of my Nanny's garden.

scio, oregon, OR(Zone 8a)

My bad, I promised him next time he can go in my suitcase!

scio, oregon, OR(Zone 8a)

I'll be glad to save seeds. The name was "Peach Melba"

LOL you know when I was at the thrift store they had a little wooden box, that was a lot like a suitcase. I almost got it for Staynot's travelcase, so we could put little stickers all over ti from his travels. But it was a bit heavy, and didn't want the postage for him to go over the top. Wonder if I could make one from cardboard?

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Oooh thanks so much! It is a beauty!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Jojo, love the idea of the suitcase and sticker. That is what the Canadian grome plus moose will be doing--check their thread if you haven't already.

Where is Scio Oregon?

scio, oregon, OR(Zone 8a)

Scio, Oregon: 600 people and 1 gnome. It's in the Willamette Valley between Albany and Salem.

scio, oregon, OR(Zone 8a)

The suitcase idea is GREAT! The postage wouldn't be that much more!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Okay. Have an idea. Been to Corvalis with hubby many years ago. He was working, I played!! Loved the area!

Joey in Conroe, TX(Zone 8b)

Maybe I'll go back and see if the one they had is still there. It was pretty beat up and needed new latches, so maybe... And I could give a new finish! See if I can get there today!

scio, oregon, OR(Zone 8a)

Did you all know there is a presidential gnome???????????

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)
