Owen Meets Fabio

When we walked into the office, he saw the six-foot tall cut-out and had a moment of extreme...shyness? I think. He doesn't really look afraid. Slightly amused. But shy.


He figured out pretty quickly that Fabio is a lightweight.

And then he got on a chair to explore the upper regions. Went right for the nipple.
Yeah, me too. That thing looks REAL.

It was a hoot. What Owen mostly wanted to do was to stick a tack into Fabio. Wherever he could. I would not let him. Hell no! That's MerMer's Fabio!

Owen and I had a good day. We got a lot of playing done. Fed the chickens and got the eggs. Fed the mule next door with some Cheerios. Found a marble in the yard that the rain had revealed. I always love to find new old treasures in this yard. I wondered about the child who might have owned that marble, the games he or she might have played. The kid probably fed chickens, too.

I doubt he or she touched Fabio's nipple though. However, one cannot assume anything.
Anything at all can happen in this big world.

Anything we can imagine and a hell of a lot that we can't.

  1. I can't believe you have a life-size Fabio cut out! Hilarious...and awesome! I have a Fabio in my life too; my Lipizzaner gelding. His mane and tail rival the real Fabio's. Ha ha ha!

  2. I am sure Owen is never, ever going to forget Fabio. Even when he has grandchildren of his own he won't forget. One can't forget things like that!

  6. It's probably for the best that there are things we can't imagine... How funny to see Owen his reaction to Fabio. Maybe Fabio will be a role model for the rest of Owen's life... ;o))
