The Balloon Tree

The other day I found a ball on the ground. It wasn't your usual ball. It was soft and didn't bounce very far. The tall guy said that it was a balloon. As a matter of fact, he said it was a magic balloon. I asked him where these magic balloons come from and he said they came from the balloon tree.

"Balloon tree?", I scoffed. "There's no such thing as a balloon tree!"

"Oh yes", the tall guy said, "all people and their puppies have their own balloon tree. One day, when you have been a very especially good puppy, we will find ours. Some puppies never have anyone to help them find their tree. But it is not an ordinary balloon tree - it is a MAGIC balloon tree. It is magic because it talks to me. Once we have found our tree, it tells me how lucky I am to have found each YOU!"

Well, guess what?

  1. Tall guy tells tall tales, no? Say that 5 times fast! Just like that story about squirrels in a moose suit. Of course I cant prove it wasn't so charges against Moose have been dismissed. Moose says thanks to TG!

  9. Do da balloons haveta be in a tree? Mom almost passed out blowin' up my balloons for my birthday video. She got dizzy and had ta sit down. Does that count that she thinks she's lucky to have found me?

    I think you are lucky to have found your 2 legger-even if he does make stories up about magic balloons.

  14. Hey jack,
    Have TG tell you about the kite tree and the TP tree. We've seen 'em. Some times it's easy to find balloon trees because there's little kids standing near them and pointing at the balloons and crying very LOUDLY. If you're really like you might find one of the rare R/C airplane trees.
