Holy cows brains!!!! I cannot believe it's been four years since I last saw my army. The hurricane really messed things up. The tree's that have the long twisty roots that go from the top branch into the ground, well they no longer exist at JPP. *sigh* I didn't think anything else did either. I walked around the heart trail once. Nothing. Just other people looking at me like I'm psycho. When I do my walk, I call out to the Squirrels with a little chattery noise so that they know it is me, their commander and chief. Other people seem to think that's a bit strange. Go figure.
So there was nothing on the first round. No air force no ground troops. Nothing. I'm starting to panic. Now I am just wandering around, staring up into the trees, chattering. I'm beginning to get a picture of why people might have thought I was a bit weird. I turn my head at every little rustle and every movement that I see out of the corner of my eye. Nothing. I'm starting to get really depressed. I start telling myself over and over again "I'm too early. I'm too early. I'm too early."
Then I see one scampering after another one. w00t! The moment of triumph!!! They are young and skittish. None of the ones I knew are still there. It's OK though. I'll have another army in no time.... Though the birds never came out. The Blue Jays are gone from the park. I, however, did manage to get a butterfly and an alligator. SO I got the air and the water as well as the ground. Muhahahahhahahahahahahaha.
I will reign again!!!!
