This evening, as the Fort Doberdale Squirrel Posse and I were resting out back, we heard the sound of our approaching nemesis. The Goodyear Blimp! She swept in from behind. We used to think she was a slow goer, but not anymore. 

The Posse got particularly riled up and chased her extra fast and hard tonight. Probably due to our having warmed up with mosquito swatting practice. Mosquitoes were hard targets compared to the oversized balloon in the sky. But when the action got going, she flashed us her fabulous true colors.

Baby and the rest of the FDSP were in awe. What a beautiful sight right over our campus. We were wooed, inspired, and in between scratching our mosquito bumps, applauded the beautiful show in the sky.

Next time, she will get a warm welc… oh shoot, that’s not true. Next time she will still get us riled up because every Posse needs a rival. And when the squirrels aren’t out, well, a blimp will have to do.
