THE AMAZING TUNNEL CHASE: O' TUNNEL WHERE ART THOU?
Well hello there Audience. When we last left off, we had completed the very last clue and "Detour" in The Amazing Tunnel Chase...
Taking some drastic measures to find my missing tunnel, I printed off a "Reward" poster and circulated it throughout the countryside...
As I waited at Headquarters for tips and info to flood in, I opened up the morning paper and was besides myself...
The headlines read "Magic Tunnel Spotted In Cabo"...
There was a photo of my tunnel whooping it up in Cabo San Lucas! Can you believe it felines?
Well Neytiri got her fur all ruffled up over theese one...
She decided to pull out all the stops, sending the "Duck Army" to Marmotville in search of Varmit The Marmot and some answers...
The "Duck Army" first spotted theese little fellows who looked awfully sheepish and guilty and would not divulge any info whatsoever...
But then they happened upon this little Marmot, who once bribed with some tasty sunflower seeds, decided to pull the plug on the whole operation...
He said that not only was Varmit The Marmot back at Marmotville, he was at the local watering hole this morning passing around some photos from Cabo...
Ducky and his army were shocked to see the photographic evidence of my tunnel in action...
And then, "it" happened...Varmit The Marmot appeared on the scene...
He whistled a song of surrender. You see Audience, Varmit decided that he still wanted to keep his Groundhog job with us here at Headquarters...
If you recall, he struck a deal with me last Groundhog Day to be the official Groundhog of British Columbia and signed a 5 year contract wher
ein I'm going to give him a case of Num-Nums a year for the next 5
years to bribe him for early Spring predictions ensure accurate yearly predictions. Because the Num-Nums his job was at stake, he decided to come clean...
Now listen closely felines...this is where the story gets real interesting...
After 105 things appearing in my tunnel...
And 22 special events at my tunnel...
My tunnel decided that it needed a real vacation, not one of theese "closed for construction" or "spring cleaning" dealies, but the real deal! Having heard the marmots discuss their previous winter holidays in Meh-He-Co, my tunnel started to dream of little umbrella drinks, beaches and fun-in-the-sun...
Wanting to make my tunnel's dream vacay come true, Varmit then booked my tunnel a one-way ticket to Cabo and created a diversion, aka The Amazing Tunnel Chase...
Having the time of its life, my tunnel has taken up residence at the Cabo Wabo Cantina as evidenced by theese photos sent to Varmit...
Hmm, folks...
Do you think my tunnel will ever return?
**Editor's Note: Meanwhile, somewhere in the countyside, the goats saw Cloon's "Reward" poster and couldn't believe their eyes...
Having read the morning paper and having seen the "$1 Mil Reward", the goats did the only thing a goat could do...
They started "hoofin-it" in the direction of Meh-He-Co...
Join us next TUESDAY felines for our next installment of "Tunnel Chase Tuesday".
