We were good and tired so we sprawled around in the woods near the creek and jollied each other, especially Pee-wee.
Warde said, “The next time anybody mentions a funny-bone hike to me——”
“What do you know about funny-bone hikes?” Hervey shot back. “You’ve only seen the beginning of one. What we’ve been doing up to now is just a demonstration.”
“Good night, have a heart,” I said.
Hervey just lay there on his back with one leg up in the air, catching that crazy hat of his on his foot and trying to kick it back on his face—honest, that fellow’s a scream. All the while he was singing:
The land is very funny,
And the water’s very wet,
We’ve been everywhere,
But up in the air;
And we haven’t done anything yet.
