The Place of the Smiling Pig

We had my husband's older car out for a spin, and so it was that we took a tour through many of our local backroads in the afternoon. One of them was Dry Hollow Road, and we know there is a special friend, sometimes, waiting there for me.

There is a farm that has horses, and sometimes there are ponds in the field, where a fine pig might like to wallow on a nice, sunny day. There was no pond on this day, but oh how we cheered when we spotted our friend the pig!

Of course, my husband had to pull the car over so I could hop out and snap a few photos. This was my best shot, taken from a kneeling-on-the-ground position directly in front of this superior porcine individual.

I thought the smile looked huge and warm and inviting, and the pig and I exchanged some greetings, as I took my photos. It is always a treat to run into a pig as fine as this. Good day, friend pig, and well met, as always! Rock on, notorious P-I-G!!!!

Our song is Olivia Newton-John, with Smile for Me.

Bonus: You can be a big pig too! (silly video from Lion King)
