- Oh Gerald, it IS you.
- Hello Mum
- Hello son.
- Hello Dad. What on earth are you two doing out here?
- We're on holiday.
- On safari.
- Well you've certainly come to the right place. I can show you around, everywhere, for free.
- Oh Gerald, it's so nice to see you. It's been such a long time.
- Only a few months Mum, I'm only really settling in now. I have a great job here.
- What did you do to your nose dear? It looks broken.
- Oh that. Yes, well....I...err, I....umm....I entered the World Safari Wrestling Championships. I'm afraid the elephant in the third round was just too strong for me.
- Wrestling you say? Goodness Gerald, what a life you're leading!
- It's fun, Dad. Don't look at me like that Mum.
- Sorry dear, but I do worry about you.
- Well come on son, tell us all about what you've been doing.
- Well....where to start? Tell you what, let's go get a nice pot of tea and I'll tell you all about it.
- That sounds lovely dear.
- Righty-oh then.
*And they wandered off in search of tea and lives lived happily ever after....but not before Mildred whispered to George...
- You know George, this is exactly what I wished for back at the fountain.
- Me too, Mildred, me too.
.... The End.*

This photograph was taken at Newport Rhode Island June of 1987 near the Viking hotel a statute of George Washington stands alone a symbol of the American Ideal of Liberty. This photograph was taken with a Nikon F3HP with a 70-210mm Tokina Zoom lens at F4 1/60 of a second Kodachrome 64. The Bronze statue had an incredible green patina. I have seen recent pictures of the statue and the green patina was cleaned off, I find that disappointing since in my opinion it now lacks some of that original character.
