“Well, that’s something new!” Zing was puzzled.
So was Zang. “What’s it for? It’s not plugged in to anything.”
“Well, it leads to that balcony. Maybe it’s an outside entrance?”
“Too small for humans, though. They’d get stuck. Let’s go up and take a look.”
“You sure?”
“Of course. Go invisible and teleport up.”
When they neared the top, they heard, “Hey, Don, did you remember to water the tomatoes?”
“Doing it right now!” The balcony door opened. A bucket was tipped into the trellis, showering Zing and Zang as it flowed to the planter below.
Surprise! But much better than what used to splash down from balconies back in “the good old days.” 😉 Really like your new header by the way. (How can it be June already?!)

Oh, my, yes! With all the apartment buildings in our larger cities, I don’t even want to imagine what emptying the chamber pots would be like!
And yes, It’s June. In only 27 days, it will be July! .

And very innocent. I’ve read some of my original stories recently, and it doesn’t seem they’ve learned much 🙂

If there is a mystery, Zing and Zang will get to the bottom (or is that the top?) of it. Great take on the photo, Linda!

I laughed at ‘It’s not plugged into anything.’ They might be aliens, but that comment could have come from any young Earthling. Very funny story.
