Perry brought his friends so eventually Perry 2, 3 and 4 were also coming regularly. (they all looked like quadruplets!)

(g)) But alas she changed her mind and told him "Au revoir" (much to the shock of other kindreds (g) and poor Gus) He's taking it well, and has been fair to middlin and only every so often does he mumble "Ha! That's rich! I'd like to fly and spit diamonds..." He has decided to return to Felicity. :) Avonlea (especially Felicity) is looking forward to the Return of Gus Pike. (g)
77. hopes that if Michael Mahonen ever hears of me, he will not think me completely insane!!
78. Here kitty, kitty was her first sentence. (I've always loved cats and they are constantly adopting me. ;))
