Sunny Greetings from California to
Everyone!
Thank you, Peter, Jim, and Ana-Maria, for
this fun forum. Your hard work is appreciated.
Thank you for those of you who voted for my
Rooster Cogburn. Also my sincere thanks to all of you for your warm
congratulations.
I wish to take this opportunity to share
with you a little bit background of Mr. Rooster Cogburn. I met Cogburn (my name
for him) at the Artistic Point Gift Shop and Museum in the Arkansas Ozarks in
mid afternoon on a Saturday in early summer this year. Next to the gift shop is
a scenic overlook from which tourists can see the beautiful Boston Mountains
with Lake Shepherd Springs and White Rock Mountain in the distance. The gift
shop was closed and no one was around. My husband and I were walking and
looking around the area. Soon I noticed this gorgeous rooster proudly walked
toward me. Then he stopped as if posing for a picture. Each time he heard my
camera click, he would strike a new pose and wait for the next picture to be
taken. Clearly he enjoyed the attention. After several pictures, he led us
around to the entrance of the gift shop, checking occasionally to make sure we
were following! He seemed to think it his duty to greet visitors, make an
impression, and then escort them to the gift shop.
Later, as Cogburn strutted close
to our car, he noticed his reflection in the shiny door panel and stopped to
admire himself. He certainly made our afternoon delightful and
memorable!
Rooster Cogburn, King Of Ozarks Have an Awesome Weekend!
