“THE OUT DOOR” Maybe it’s because he’s a non-conformist or maybe it’s just because pigs can’t read, but invariably Goldie goes IN the OUTDOOR!

“TRAVEL” When mobility is called for, the Motley Tribe relies heavily on their leader, the artist Walter Ego. In fact, it’s often most efficient to rely completely on the Walter’s lengthy stride.

“Armillaria ostoyae!” The Motley tribe does not leave the Magical Archipelago very often. One of their most memorable off off-archipelago adventures though was the trip to the Mahler National Forest in Oregon to see the legendary “Honey Mushroom.” It’s considered the largest and oldest organism on earth. Really! !

“MUG” Goldie the Pig was thrilled that he could get a hunk of granite of sufficient size! He started early sculpting his Father’s Day gift early, because it was quite a task. In fact, the artistWalter Ego is not his real father, but he functions like Goldie’s dad. It’s not a functional mug, but a mug-like mug of a favorite mug.
