Even though there is still snow on the ground, we are no longer snowed in. Sword went to spend the night at a friend's house, and encouraged by the example of the friend's mother who was able to drive all the way down our driveway, I took the opportunity when Bow went to sleep last night to pick up my mail from the post office box and to restock my store of apples, bananas and grapes. I finally have the proof of
Ping & the Snirkelly People.

When I showed it to Bow this morning, he was very interested. He looked at it for a while, then he took me to the glass and spelled: "It's a big book."
"Yes," I said. "It is big. Do you think people will want to buy it?"
"Yes," he spelled. Well, if Bow thinks so, then we might have a chance!
