An Elephant Story

by blondtwin Email

Nah, not really.  Well, sorta.

My sister somehow collects elephants.  She says she doesn't.  Yet, every year and on various occasions, she gets some new elephant trinket.  She's not even sure how it reallly happened.  Heh. 

The same thing kinda happened to me.  When we were living in Spain, Eric and I passed by a store in Puerto de Santa Maria that had a lovely musical rocking horse.  I stood and admired it for a good while before moving on.  Later, I don't remember if it was my birthday, anniversary or Christmas, but, I happily unwrapped it and put it in a place of honor.  Then, somehow, everyone thought I collected rocking horses, so, I received rocking horses for quite some time after that.  The collection is put away now, but, I still remember that horse fondly.

This video posted on FaceBook reminded me of my sister's elephants and, in turn, my rocking horses. 

It's a neat story.  http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=410861091927

I'll have to watch the video when I get home tomight. I KNOW why I collect elephants; because I'm hard to buy for. On the plus side, I now have cool elephants from all over the world. Thanks for the house warming elephant and runner from Afghanistan!
