Gus and Trudy were so happy to be back home. The fact that it was a sunny day made it even better. They knew that Elaine had a lot of work to do in the garden so they really didn't want to stay in the house and listen to her clomping around.
Where to go?
Trudy remembered that the greenhouses were still set up on the deck. She talked Gus into flying up with her and they snuck into the greenhouse.
Were they ever shocked! The plants were just starting to sprout when they left for vacation and now the were ginormous!
They were so big that Gus and Trudy were able to play a rousing game of hide and seek. At one point they couldn't even find one another!
Jasmine the cat even came out and watched them playing in the greenhouses. She soon tired of watching them and fell asleep on the deck in the sun.
Gus and Trudy played well into the evening. They zipped up the greenhouses and said good night to the plants (they know the secret to happy plants is talking to them). Gus ran home and made a beautiful salad for Trudy. Trudy flew around and picked some pretty roses for Gus. They had a wonderful dinner. They were both so tired from playing earlier in the day that they fell asleep on the swing on their front porch.
