Ernie & Bud were shopping in the mall this morning and kept hearing this whistling as they went thru Bon-Ton....As they were turning the corner in Seasonal Housewares they heard the whistling and then someone yelled "HEY! I've been waiting for you to show up!" After they collected their wits about them, they turned a low and behold there stood this Flamingo, winking and smiling at them....Ernie asked if she was talking to them and she answered back..."Of course...My name is Petula and I want to go with you and Lori to the Sept. GTG of the Women RV in PA. Belle sneaked Beth's cell phone and called me telling me that you would be in to pick me up (at a great price, I may add...I'm 80% off on clearance.) I've also rounded up some "tacky lights of my little cousins" and other goodies for the GTG. So we're ready to go as soon as you take us to the checkout and pay for us." 
Well, since Ernie spent some time with Belle when she was with us, he knows to do as she says....so he paid for her and the tacky lights and brought them back to the 5er.....I was quite surprised and pleased to meet "Petula"....So, without further ado.....May I introduce, Petula....Belle's cousin from Olean, NY....
She's a little more than 3 ft. tall and lights up....
And looks very nice beside my lighted Palm Tree...
So, when all attend the GTG at Ferryboat this September, we'll be there to greet you...
Now, Ernie has to find a place for her in the 5er for traveling.....
