A flamingo tale...

It all started back in April of 2006 when we decided to put our condo on the market. Right before our first open house, we decided to kindly ask our fabulous neighbors, Don and Teri, to remove the pink flamingo lawn ornament from their backyard. They responded by saying "we thought that was yours!" And thus began the battle of the pink flamingo.

The flamingo would randomly find its way back to our house, usually when we least expected it, and we in turn would do the same. I believe we were even able to hide it in their bath tub at one point! Wouldn't you know that when it was finally time for us to pack up our belongings to move to our new home, that flamingo made its way into the back of our moving truck!

And so it went on and on, and Andy even found a bunch of mini flamingos online at one point which made for the best "flamingoing" yet! Though after two and half years, the flamingo had gone into hiding, until we got home from our trip to Wintergreen to find the following in our front lawn....

Sadly, Don and Teri have now moved as well, only they didn't move a mile down the street like we did, they are now in Alabama and we will miss them terribly! But who knows, maybe these flamingos will find their way back to our dear friends...
