Here's a bit more. Parents - get out some maps and have fun with it. If you look at the map in the story you will see the path where Nicker swam to meet Gracie. This is a different map. Nicker swam up the River Ribble!

This issue has been delayed for a few days, but I expect it to be up this weekend. Meanwhile, Gordie the Social Tortie has been busy, too. This the shot of the opening as it is now. It's about 4-feet wide. I merely crouched, so the flash only reached in about 5 feet. One day soon, I plan to crawl into that cave to see, and photograph, the inside.

We have sure been busy here at Nicker Stories!
Another story has been recorded, as I promised. Soon you will be able to listen and read along.
Other stories are also being recorded. In fact, we're even bringing in people to read guest stories, and do voices. What FUN we're all going to have!
The story of Nicker going to Scotland to meet Gracie the cute dog is nearly done.
Meanwhile, I have been asked to do another story about Gordie the Tortie. Since you are here in Nicker News, I'll give you a little preview that others don't know (unless they also come to Nicker News).
Gordie used to live in a sort of brick room. He'd come out each morning and go back each evening. These days, he lives underground, in a cavern he made for himself. he doesn't come out every day ... but is as sociable, and as goofy, as ever.
The new dog who has come to visit for a while is Kage. In the new story you will get to see Kage. He's CUTE! He's also very funny, especially when it comes to that walking boulder named Gordie.
All of this and more, including pictures, will be in the new story. (We're even thinking about adding movies to Nicker Stories, so you can see Gordie the Tortie get a bath, see Kage running around him .....)
It's time for ME to take another trip to Lake Edie. If you are a fan, you know the story about how Nicker got in trouble with the goose. And of course you know about the Lake Elf, Nicker's cousin Minni, and so on. Well, I'm going for another visit and have been told that there are no geese around Lake Edie. Hmmm, I wonder why, don't you?
Guess what. I will even bring a movie camera with me. Just in case.
