Sandy: what is this box hidden away under the phlox? And who is that hiding behind? Thing1: I don’t know! Let’s move the box out where we can investigate and introduce ourselves to the…. Whats-it. What’s-it: I’m not a ‘what’s-it,’ I’m a Wobblemop! My name Hartensia, but my friends call me Hart. Please call me Hart.

It is taking cooperation, teamwork and a lot of pushing and pulling to move the mysterious box. Sandi: where did Hart disappear to? Hart, whispering from deep in the flowers: I’m a bit shy until I get to know people.

Thing2: I wonder what is inside!? Hart (from the bushes): Ummmmm….. might I suggest opening it?

Sandi: Oh, my!! What lovely yarn. The colors make me think of gnice cream! Blueberry, peppermint chips and strawberry creme! Thing2: but what is the yarn for? Could there be a gnew gnome in the making?

Hart: Did I hear someone say ‘gnice cream?’ My favorite treat. I hear the best gnice cream is at the Gnice Cream Shoppe in the Gnorthern Ranges National Park. Do you think we could go? Sandi: if we are going to travel together, we need to know more about you. What can you tell us about yourself?

Sandi: Well, the first thing to do is figure out exactly where we are going. Does anybody know precisely where the Great Gnorthern Range National Park is? Even what continent it is on? The only sound to be heard was the scratching of heads and beards as the others wracked their brains.

Sandi: well, I know we can’t get there from here! We have to go somewhere else first! We should get started. Thing1: I’ve been hearing something about leaving no stone unturned. Sandi: it’s going to be a looooong trip… SIGH!!!!

Shelly: Oops! This isn’t the Great Gnorthern Range National Park, it is Australia’s Northern Territory. Let’s have a snack. Are there mushrooms nearby, Hart? Hart: Sadly, no. Let’s try again.

Thing2: Hart, you outdid yourself! Thing1: Chow Down!!!

Hey, Hart… this doesn’t look like Great Gnorthern Range National Park. It looks like the Mackinaw Bridge in Gnorthern Michigan… in winter! What happened? Hart: I guess I can’t really control the enhancements. Sandi: that’s ok… we’re visiting some interesting places!

Well, we are still in Gnorthern Michigan, but at least it is warmer! Wow!! This is one of the mushroom houses in Charlevoix, isn’t it? Yeah, it is so cool.

Well, we must be getting closer! We’ve found a map of sorts to lots of ice cream shops. But what else have we found!? I think these are some of Gnorwen’s coworkers! (Left to right) Cherry Berry, Ginger Mignt and Gnilla Bean. They look a bit melted!

Hart’s history:

Well, began Hart, I was born into a family of wild Wobblemops but was quite little when I got separated from my pack while I was chasing will-o-wisps in the forest. I was rescued and raised with a family of domesticated Wobblemops and their human. I struggle sometimes with my natural, wild urges and actually sometimes might pick up and pocket something that might, perhaps, be not quite mine to keep. I quickly realize that it isn’t appropriate behavior, and hide it in an obvious place where the true owner can quickly find it. It is soooooo embarrassing when that happens!!

My one, Cyclopian eye can see mushrooms before they pop out of the forest floor. I can tell how long it will be before they erupt. My magical aura enhances any magic performed within a ten foot radius. I would be a tremendous asset to a traveling group of gnomes, helping to find food and enhancing magic powers. Do you have magic powers?

Sandi: well, we do have powers, and each of us has one that we are especially excellent at. Mine is lighting safety matches (small fires). Thing1 can make a group leap-travel (4or fewer 25 miles at a pop), and Thing2 can keep companions warm and dry. We could travel very light if you were along, taking not much more than the clothes on our backs! I wonder how long it would take us……
