Two Stories

April 10, 2023 by Diana

Story One (in one sentence): These are the feet of an explorer named Burrito.

Story Two: Rayne was grooming Mave on the catwalk of the Oakwood Greenhouse, with Dora lying next to Mave. Honey B spotted them from the Riverview Greenhouse and headed all the way over to join them.

Then she enticed Dora to groom her.

We used to think of Honey B as a loner.

This little moment made me happy.

The end.

    That’s exactly what I thought when I saw it, Diana! “Honey B fitting in” ?

    Oh Burrito, it’s tough being an explorer. And for Honey B, it’s tough having FOMO! :laughing:

    Loved both of your stories. Thanks Diana!

    Oh, Diana, thank you for these moments captured! I LOVE seeing them grooming and touching each other in such careful and caring ways. And that Bubba! He just makes me swoon no matter what he’s doing or not-doing. I’m going to take a pic of the screen of his feet and draw them. Just think of the stories those feet could tell!

    No Lie..
    … those feet are screaming for attention .:crazy_face:….slap some coconut oil on those babies and he can lick them and pamper them himself:grin: and Honey B…. that girl …..is always on the receiving end…….hopefully she reciprocated 😉

      She did last week, and they caught it on video. I hadn’t seen if before. I’m glad she’s fitting in

    Looks like someone’s waiting for a pedicure. And the ladies salon is open for massages. Wait, is this a sanctuary or a spa?

    Short but VERY sweet! So good that Honey B has joined the ‘Ladies who Groom’ club……hopefully, she enjoyed her experience and will be coming back for more! Thanks Diana.

    Yes, they are short stories but I love any story that features Honey B. The pictures are wonderful too. Thanks, Diana.
