A dog, a burro, a magpie, and a Mustang walk into a watering hole.
What could possibly go wrong?
Quite a lot, as it turns out.
Welcome to the first installment of The Watering Hole Chronicles, a collection of humorous and heartwarming tales from beneath the cottonwood tree at Tux's Watering Hole.
Join Tux, the watchful ranch dog; Sneaky Pete, a burro with no shortage of opinions; Tahotay, a wise Mustang mare who often finds herself being the voice of reason; and a mischievous magpie whose fascination with shiny objects has a way of creating unexpected adventures.
Inside you'll discover four unforgettable stories:
- The Outhouse and the Burro
When Sneaky Pete becomes convinced that something so full of itself ought to be securely anchored, a simple observation sets off one of the most memorable incidents in Watering Hole history.
- A Tail of a Magpie, a Burro, and a Mustang
A shiny mystery, an unlikely investigation, and a reminder that friendship comes in many forms.
- The Day Sneaky Pete Solved a Problem
When everyone else is out of ideas, Sneaky Pete is just getting started. Whether his solution improves the situation remains open for debate.
- Wanted for Having Too Much Fun
A lighthearted look at what happens when adventure, friendship, and good intentions collide on the western frontier.
Filled with old-west humor, memorable characters, and gentle lessons about friendship, curiosity, patience, and finding joy in the journey, these stories are perfect for readers of all ages.
So pull up a chair beneath the cottonwood tree.
The water is cool, the stories are warm, and there's always room for one more friend at Tux's Watering Hole.
