Balladeer: Now Luke Bo Jud and Lacy were planning on staying at Cooters old farm. Meanwhile Sarabeth and Misty were making it to the farm.
DUKE FARM
Sarabeth jumped out of the car and ran up the steps knocking on the back door. Daisy who had been snapping beans went to the door. "Yes?" She asked.
"Um you probably don't remember me but I am Jud's girlfriend. Sarabeth." She said.
"I remember. Who's your friend?" Daisy asked.
"Oh this is my cousin Misty. Seems this morning I got up and my daughter was gone. Jud hasn't come with her has he?" Sarabeth asked.
"No Sugar he hasn't sorry." Daisy said acting all sincere.
"Alright thank you." Sarabeth said leaving.
Balladeer. After Sarabeth and Misty left the farm Daisy radioed the boys and let em know what was going on. She also questioned them about calling Jennifer and letting her know that Lacy was alright.
COOTER FARM
Jud was sitting on a saw horse watching Bo and Luke interact. He hadn't noticed it before but the touched were those of. "No it can't be." Jud said to himself. It was almost like they were lovers. Luke slapped Bo on the side and walked over to Jud.
"How is the baby doing?" Luke asked.
"Oh she's fine. Sleeping on the hay over there." Jud said pointing to the stack of hay in the corner where a snoozing Lacy was laid.
"Good. Bo is gonna go call Mike. Let him know that we have a package for them to come get. So then you can meet our little sister." Luke said.
"Sounds good little brother. Man I can't believe we have a little sister. Tell me what is she like?" Jud asked.
Balladeer: Luke filled Jud in on Jennifer while Bo called Mike. Now this plan is turning out nicely. But I don't think Sarabeth will like that too much.
CLAYBURN FLORIDA
Mike was walking back into the house after loading the hunting truck with camping stuff. Him Jennifer and Jackie were going camping in the woods this weekend. Friends of Rhonda and Ricky's were helping him keep Jennifer occupied. He was stopped dead in his tracks when he spotted a picture of Jennifer holding Lacy the day she was born 3 years ago. He had to hold back his tears.
Balladeer: Now I would be sad to see that too.
Mike was startled by the phone. He picked it up. "Hello?" He asked.
"Mike Newman?" The voice asked.
"Yes." He said.
"I'm Bo Duke. I'm I guess Jennifer's cousin." Bo said.
"Oh yes she mentioned you. Sorry she hasn't called or anything. She hasn't been real talkative." Mike said.
"I can bet. Listen we have a package for her. It can be an early Christmas gift." Bo said.
"Um ok. Call me before you leave and I'll tell you where we are. If you can reach us here call my grandparents." Mike said.
'Sounds good. Give Jennifer our love." Bo said.
"I will. Thanks for calling." Mike said and hung up.
Jennifer came out of the kitchen at that time. "Who was on the phone?" She asked.
"Bo. Said they had a package for you." Mike said.
"Oh? Are they coming here?" Jennifer asked.
"Yeah but not for a couple of days. Come on we have a camping trip and deer to kill." Mike said linking his arm around her shoulders.
Balladeer: Think Bo and Luke can get to Clayburn before Christmas?
