Can you see me?? I am almost hidden here on top of the entrance sign of the famous Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History, Washington, D.C.
Part of the Smithsonian Institution, this museum displays the heritage of the United States in the areas of social, political, cultural, scientific, and military history.

AR and Moley - Part 3

The day before his departure, Moley took AR for an exhilarating All Terrain Vehicle

ride! Moley got a bit queasy as she sometimes does, but the adventurous rat enjoyed

every moment!

The two friends sunned themselves on a mossy rock. Because it’s been a dry winter thus

far, the moss was scratchy—perfect for itching those hard-to-reach places between the

shoulders.

AR and Moley climbed a toyon bush, looking to catch sight of the Pig Air plane.

All too soon, they were hugging good-bye. Moley’s already booked a flight to the Black

Pearl, where she’ll be the world’s only known pirate mole.

AR and Moley - Part 2

In keeping with the festive season, AR and Moley climbed into the Christmas tree and

pretended to be ornaments.

AR followed the song of the harp…

And discovered a Christmas Angel who sent greetings from friends at the Rainbow

Bridge.

Festivities wouldn’t be complete without a gingerbread house. AR couldn’t resist taking a

little nibble of the icicles.

Theodora, the ancient wise-bear, joined Moley and AR for a spot of tea with cream.

Moley bestowed an AR-sized tea set upon her ratty friend, a souvenir of his stay in

Penryn, California.

AR and Moley - Part 1

Moley, a lady mole descended from the Wind in the Willows’ mole, met AR as he scurried off the Pig Air jet. AR showed her his many souvenirs and let Moley try on his hat.

AR was quick to meet Puff and The Beautifuls and got his picture taken with the infamous Ruffian.

Tired from his journey, he joined Moley in a cozy sack for a quick nap.

AR and the misfits say goodbye!

And for the second part

Goodbye Moline, goodbye Misfits
