With Ginni: As the Doll Museum
Remodels and
Renovates
 |
| A Flier showed Ms. Ginni |
The Fabulous Vacation First Night had been a time of uproar
for the employees at the Doll Museum.
Not only had Ginni won The Vacation to Hawaii in the drawing from the
nearby drugstore – the doll museum had plans to remodel and renovate. The First Night celebrations were filled with
rumor and conjecture, even questions of when – the apartment residents would
see carpet swatches.
Ms. Thorvaldsen, from Public
Relations, of course would travel to Hawaii with Ginni. They would place Shadow to board at the pet
Daycare. One of the drugstore fliers
featured a photo of Ginni to announce that she was the prize winner. And a flier copy was posted everywhere – at the
offices and in the halls of the museum.

Ginni brought art stored in closet
floors all out to be near her door. It
was a very strong start to have all of her things off the floor. So.
Ginni and Ms. Thorvaldsen lofted into the air on the start of the
Fabulous Vacation, secure in the trust that they had a good start on
preparations for the remodel and renovation.
However: why can a companion who is named Shadow climb
along uphill in the dark of night?

Missing “Shadow is
missing?” Ginni looked up – Ms.
Thorvaldsen was on the telephone at the hotel room desk. “Shadow?
Our Shadow? Shadow has perfect
scores in Pet Daycare.”
“We must go
back immediately!” And Ginni began to
pack in a rush for the plane trip back.

At the Pet Daycare “Shadow! Shadow!”
Shadow woke,
groggy with sleep. How had his friend
Billy gotten in to the Pet Daycare kennel?
“Billy! What’s going on?”
“I climb up
the tree and over the fence whenever I want to.
Just into the yard. Captain and
Major have gotten the kennel door open and they’re working on the door out of
the yard.”
On the other
side of the kennel was a note. Shadow
read:
Dear
Kewpie. We have a better
assignment.

And are
leaving. Please do not worry about us.
And enjoy
the apartment remodel.
Love,
Captain and Major
“A better
assignment. Really.” Billie was deeply impressed.
“There is no
other assignment. They want to spare
Kewpie. Things have to be off the
floor. And they know they’re not allowed
up on the furniture.”
Back From Hawaii Ginni
Surveyed her art, arranged near her living room door. She changed into a sweater and set out into
the dark to find Shadow. She climbed and
climbed up the hill. It became
colder. Fortunately, Ginni had learned
to build a small fire outdoors while she was a girl scout. She warmed her hands at the small fire and
wondered what to do now.

| Back From Hawaii |
Ahead of
her, Billy and Shadow had hurried after to find Captain and Major and get them
to go home. They climbed and climbed up
the hill. They did not find Captain and
Major, and waited, becoming colder. They
hoped they were not lost. Then: through the trees, in a small clearing, they
saw: a small, warm fire, and Ginni. So they hurried toward Ginni, and all was
well.

Ginni had a
call on her cel phone that told her Captain and Major had gone home. Now she and Shadow and Billy could return to
the Doll Museum. But first, they had a
little sing-along at the little fire.
She liked to sing, The Sound of Music, from the Movie.
Ginni made
sure the fire was completely out before they made their way back.
