Old Friends And New Friends

Meanwhile, back in May...or more from the camera card archives. 


20 has an international pen pal, a stuffed cow named Foro. Foro lives mostly in Switzerland, but gets to travel all over going mountain climbing, visiting friends and sometimes even for work.  His travel companion is my best friend from grade school.

When she was over here this spring visiting family, she and her sister (of TdF Blaze fame :-) came to our farm for a visit.  We thought it would be fun to take some pictures of Foro and 20, I thought just because they were our stuffed friends, but she said "And because of their names!"

Foro got his name by accident, if I remember correctly.  I think it was supposed to be Foto, but that got lost in translation or something and became Foro.  

"Um, okay, but what about their names?"

"Foro.  Get it?"  I didn't.

"4 0 and 2 0"  Oh, right :-D.


Luckily it was still cool enough that Foro and 20 were still able to wear their matching sweaters.  I made Foro a sweater a couple of years ago, but it apparently never made the blog :-/.  


Jared supervised the photoshoot.


And was his super sweet self.


Pinto never misses being part of the action.


Baaxter joined in, too.


And Foro told him some stories about seeing sheep up in the mountains near where he lives.

    

Foro's superpower is listening, but he looks pretty good at watching, too.  I'd love to know what these two were thinking.

Until next time, Foro :-)

What a fun story. Love that 20 and 40 got to meet in person, in their awesome sweaters. :-)

I can't believe it took you two months to share this awesome story!

Maisie- "You can't have a photo shoot without The Most Important Sheep"!
Very kind of her to give Foro a ride.
