[QUOTE="Karin, post: 38532, member: 57167"] Thank you for your comments Ms Southworth. :) Okay since you asked so nicely I'm gonna start posting episode three now, which is a bit earlier than I had originally intended: [ATTACH=full]2318[/ATTACH] [SIZE=4]The sun was still shining over Southfork Ranch, when Miss Ellie’s car pulled up on the driveway. Miss Ellie, Clayton, John Ross, Christopher and Rebecca stepped out of the car. [I]Finally we’re home,[/I] Miss Ellie reflected, as the afternoon at the multiplex hadn’t turned out like she had expected and now she was eager to get a break from her upset grandkids that were all in a bad mood. The seven year old girl, Rebecca had been complaining all the way home because she did not get to see how [I]Pocahontas[/I] ended. The 13 year old, Christopher and 16 year old, John Ross had effectively blocked her out by listening to a CD walkman with a double set of earphones all the way home. Both boys were sour after getting caught sneaking into an R-rated movie and were not looking forward to being punished. After stepping out of the car Miss Ellie turned to John Ross, Christopher and Rebecca and said, “Okay kids now I want you to wait outdoors while Clayton and I go in and talk to your parents and don’t think you’re getting out of this one that easily!”[/SIZE] “Grandma can I go with you?” Rebecca asked. “No Rebecca this is an adult conversation.
