Marching

Alice's "Bye!" is ardent these days; her driving needs a bit more work. But ever resourceful, she finds an alternative. (Sorry about the video quality--not sure what was up.)

The kid actually walked a full block home from the park, unfazed by the growing gap between her and the rest of the crew.

Edith meanwhile held a protest march that she and Mor-mor had planned during a visit a couple of weeks ago. Mor-mor presented Edith with a new horse for her collection, a lovely white mare that they named Silk. Unfortunately Golden, an older brown mare who is queen of the horse kingdom, was jealous and treated Silk unkindly. So Edith concocted a plan for a protest march, complete with signs she devised. Because if you were jealous and acting poorly, wouldn't you respond to a mass demonstration of people in the streets calling you out on it? On the other hand, it's an admirably nonviolent alternative to ordering your royal hunstman to take the offending party into the woods and return with her heart in a box...

With Silk

The marchers

Rumor has it that Silk and Golden have held private talks, and prospects are good for future relations.
