KISH HEADS HOME

SO THE MONKEY IS GETTING HOME SICK.  AS IS HIS DRIVER.  IT'S TIME TO DO LIKE FOREST GREELEY SAID IN THE  1800'S. " HEAD WEST YOUNG MONKEY ...HEAD WEST. " EXPLAINS A LOT ABOUT CALIFORNIANS DOESN'T IT? 

KISH DECIDED THAT IS WAS TIME TO TRADE IN HIS SUNRISE CHALLENGED DRIVER FOR SOMEONE A LITTLE LESS "EXPERIENCED". THIS CHICKIE PIE WAS HIS ONLY TAKER , AND SHE DIDN'T HAVE A DRIVERS' LICENSE AND KISH DIDN'T WANT TO SPEND THREE MONTHS LOOKING AT A HORSES BEHIND..(DON'T GO THERE).. SO HE OPTED TO STAY WITH THE SNAKIE.    TWAS NOT TO BE CHERIE.

SO AFTER A QUICK VISIT TO THE LOCAL MONKEY G.R.A.S.S.S. CATHEDRAL...(IT'S A BRANCH OF THE GEORGIAN REFORMED AMALGAMATED STUFFED SIMIAN SECT).. OFF THEY WENT CHASING THE SUNSET.

FIRST STOP WAS THE HINCKLEY'S IN TEXAS.  YOU MAY HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE LARGE TRAFFIC JAM THAT DALLAS EXPERIENCED LAST WEEK.  THE LAME STREAM NEWS REPORTS SAID THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY THE OPENING OF THE FIRST  TEXAN "IN AND OUT" DRIVE IN.  NUTS TO THAT.  FOX NEWS BROKE THE TRUE STORY. IT WAS CAUSED BY ALL THE TEXICANS WANTING TO MEET KISH.

IT'S THE FRIES BABY, IT'S THE FRIES.

THE ADVENTURE IS ALMOST OVER.......

THIS IS PROOF THAT KISH MADE IT TO THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.  HE STARTED HIS JOURNEY AT THE  PACIFIC AND IT WAS HIS INTENTION TO PUT HIS FEET IN THE ATLANTIC BUT THE CUTSEY LITTLE MISS WOULDN'T ALLOW IT.

"KISH." SHE CRIED, "THE LOBSTERS WILL THINK YOU'RE FOOD AND EAT YOU."

"OR WORSE....A BUG BLUE FISH MIGHT CARRY YOU AWAY AND GIVE YOU TO SPONGE BOB SQUARE PANTS...AND THAT'S A FATE WORSE THAN BEING PUT IN A TRUNK IN THE ATTIC FOR THE REST OF EVER."

SO KISH WENT BACK TO UNCLE TIMMY'S AND CHILLED OUT ON A FLOATY IN TIMMY'S  POOL.  SMART OL' KISH.

NOT BEING ONE TO WASTE TIME, KISH FIGURED THAT MAYBE HE'D BE ABLE TO CATCH SOMETHING TO EAT.  BETTER TO EAT THAN BE EATEN.

I MEAN IF MR FINGERS (KATIE'S MIDDLE CHILD) CAN FISH A WADING POOL SO CAN A STUFFED MONKEY.

THE ADVENTURE WILL CONTINUE.........

KISH HEADS EAST

IT'S FATHERS' DAY.  WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE A FOUR OUNCE STUFFED MONKEY WITH NO FATHER. (KNOCK IT OFF.. HE WAS ASSEMBLED IN SOME SWEAT SHOP OUTSIDE OF CHUNGKING.)  WELL THAT'S SIMPLE....YOU ADOPT ONE. 

NOW I REALLY DON'T THINK JOSEPH SMITH WOULD MIND...MUCH.  AFTER ALL KISH DOES NEED A GOOD ROLE MODEL AND WHO BETTER?  THIS SHOT WAS TAKEN AT THE LIBERTY JAIL.  THERE'S TWO WORDS THAT SHOULD NEVER APPEAR BACK TO BACK.

SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE OF WYOMING JUDY ASKS KISH, "WHERE ARE WE?" AFTER SPENDING 2 HOURS EXPLORING THE SURROUNDINGS HE ANSWERS "MILE POST 106".  HE'S SUCH A GREAT HELP ON A LONG JOURNEY.

WHAT DOES A STUFFED MONKEY DO AFTER A LONG DAY IN THE SMART CAR?  HE CHILLS OUT IN THE POOL WITH TIMMY M.  HE HAD TO HOLD ON TILL THEY GOT TO ALBANY GA.  BUT IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT.  NOTICE THE TWO GRINS.

TIMMY IS JUDY'S YOUNGER BROTHER.  KISH CAN'T SWIM, SO TIMMY VOLUNTEERED TO BE HIS LIFE GUARD.  I'LL LET YOU GUESS WHO COOLED OFF QUICKER.

TO BE CONTINUED.......

THE MONKEY MAKES HIS MARK

BEFORE KISH LEFT ON HIS TRIP HE DECIDED TO TAKE UP THE GUITAR.  HE LEARNED "ON THE ROAD AGAIN",  "BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN",  "ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST",  AND "HERE WE COME", (THE THEME SONG  FROM THE MONKEES).  LUCKILY THEY'RE ALL PLAYED WITH THE SAME THREE CHORDS.  THIS IS GOOD BECAUSE HE ONLY HAS THREE FINGERS.

LUCKY FOR KISH...IT'S ALSO A LIGHTER.

JUMPING OFF POINT FOR THE TRIP WAS MY OFFICE.  AS YOU CAN SEE KISH HAS A GREAT VIEW FROM HIS SEAT IN MOLLY.  NOT TO WORRY ABOUT  HIM GOING THROUGH THE WINDOW IN A CRASH.  HIS BEHIND IS DUCT TAPED TO THE DASHBOARD. OH, BY THE WAY, THAT'S HIS CHAUFFEUR, JUDY.

KISH PROMISED BEFORE HE LEFT THAT HE WOULD FIND SOME DANDELIONS TO PUT ON MY PARENTS GRAVES.  HE EVEN HAD AN EMPTY ORANGE JUICE CAN TO PUT THEM IN..AS MY FATHER REQUESTED.  DAD HATED TO SPEND MONEY ON THINGS HE CONSIDERED TO BE A RACKET.  HE MADE ME PROMISE THAT ONLY O.J. CANS AND FREE ROAD SIDE YELLOW FLOWERS WOULD ADORN HIS TOMBSTONE.  AS IT HAPPENED KISH JUST MISSED THE DANDELION SEASON AND SO THESE FLOWERS WERE PURCHASED AT A LOCAL SAFEWAY....ON SALE.   I'LL DEAL WITH DAD LATER.

SO THIS IS THE MONKEY LEAVING HIS MARK ON IDAHO.  CHUBBUCK, IDAHO TO BE EXACT.  IT'S NOT WELL KNOWN THAT STUFFED MONKEYS CAN LEAVE DEVASTATING "BUTT RUTTS" IN ANY AND ALL THINGS THEY SIT ON.  IF YOU EVER FIND YOURSELF IN CHUBBUCK. IDAHO CHECK OUT THE RUT HE LEFT IN THIS SIGN.

MORE ADVENTURES COMING.

MY MIGHTY MONKEY'S MATRIARCHAL MARCH

SO WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE BORED AND FUZZY? 

SIMPLE .... YOU INVITE YOURSELF ALONG FOR A CROSS COUNTRY TRIP.
JUDY'S GOING ON A CROSS COUNTRY GENOLOLGY TRIP AND THE MONKEY BEGGED A RIDE.

HE STARTED IN THE PACIFIC OCEAN.  THAT'S HIM  HOLDING ON TO A STICK AS THE SEA CRASHES ABOUT HIM.  IF YOU DOUBLE CLICK THE PHOTO YOU'LL SEE THE CONCERN ON HIS FACE.

THIS SHOW 'S THE LAZY PRIMATE AS HE CONTEMPLATES THE FACT THAT HE CAN'T SWIM.  HE CAN FLOAT.  BUT IT'S A LONG WAY TO KOREA, SO JUDY WILL TRY TO KEEP HIS PAWS DRY.
