Groceries

As the girls stood in the woods so that the old man from the general store did not see them, they started to lay out a plan of attack. Judy and Kim took charge, they decided that since Shauna had a club/walking stick, she should go first, Patsy second, size mattered more than brains and Judy and Kim would bring up the rear.
So as the girls left their hiding place in the woods and stepped out in the clearing, they heard someone say, "Hey girls what are you up to?", all four simultaneously turned around and at the same time Patsy yelled out in pain, because as Shauna was turning she swung her club/walking stick, and struck Patsy on the arm, leaving it red and with a large welt on it. There stood Ranger Rick, arms crossed and tapping his foot in the dirt.
After seeing who it was and relieved at the same time, Kim and Judy started telling him every thing that has happen to them since they arrived. Everything from the canoe outing, the bear, the raccoon that Judy thought was a bear, the accident of running over the raccoon, the disappearing Cheerios, the smell of Old Spice in the cabin and the old man at the general store that also smelled like Old Spice. As soon as they finished telling Ranger Rick the whole story, Ranger Rick, raises a waving hand and yells out, "Good morning Jonas."
Once again the girls turn in the direction of the cabin, this time Patsy ducking the swing of the club/walking stick, that Shauna had in her possession and laughing because she missed her. Right in front of them stood the old man from the general store. He said good morning to Ranger Rick and asked us if they had a good hike back to the cabin.
The old man from the general store said he arrived before we returned, he checked the door to see if it was unlocked, which it was, and preceded to unload the groceries from the golf cart into the cabin. At which then the old man from the general store turned to Judy and said, "That will be $31.65, for the groceries."
Judy ran into the cabin got her bag and came out with $32.00 and told the old man from the general store to keep the change. Wow what a big tipper.
So everyone stood outside the cabin for a little bit longer and finally Ranger Rick said he had to get back to work. After he left Kim and Judy mentioned to the old man from the general store that Ranger Rick was a nice guy and they felt very safe knowing he was around.
The old man from the general store replied as he was getting into his gulf cart, "Yes, Ranger Rick is a very nice guy not like his twin brother Dick, who has had some problems with the law. And just because of Dick I always have to keep Old Spice Cologne at the store"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After the golf cart pulled out of sight all four girls looked at each other and at the same time said "WHO LEFT THE DOOR UNLOCKED"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
