Georgia John
Yes sir, this young man is quick-witted, able to draw his pistol faster than you can yell howdy, and has a hero sized appetite to boot. Bad guys, BEWARE!! And of course, no hero can go without a trusty sidekick:
Ellie Oakley
This li'l lady is smart, quick on her feet, and also one of the best blueberry muffin bakers in the county! :) And while she would have you to believe that the bruise on her forehead is a battle scar, it's actually where she accidentally conked herself on the noggin (but just say a little bird told you alrighty?) :p
Together, side by side, this dynamic duo works to make the wilds of the family backyard into a safe place for law abidin' citizens everywhere!
A typical day for these justice seekers runs like this here:
With her sharp eyes, Ellie Oakley suddenly spots something (or someone) creeping closer and closer towards them. She gasps. It's an intruder poised and preparing to shoot Georgia John and Ellie Oakley with the camera that seems always to be glued to her hands. Ellie alerts G. J. to the danger. He reacts instantly and levels the intruder with a gaze that could melt ice in January:

*clears throat* I said, "...a gaze that could melt ice in January!"
Ah, that's better! ")
The intruder pauses for a short moment, but in that moment, Georgia John signals to Ellie. She nods and immediately strikes a pose that practically begs the intruder to take her picture:
Aha! The intruder is distracted and turns with her point and shoot towards Ellie. Quick as a wink, Georgia John whips out his genuine plastic pistol.

The intruder does not notice at first and walks toward G. J., the words, "SAY CHEESE!!" forming on her lips. She halts, realizing that G. J. means business:
"Now, listen here...I don't wanna get rough with ya, but if you'll kindly take your camera like contraption somewheres else, I'd be mighty obliged...please?" lol
And so, with content smiles, Georgia John and Ellie Oakley await their next adventure...satisfied that they are doing their part to keep nosy photographers out of the area and on the run! :)
He strikes a tough guy pose for emphasis, and the intruder sighs and retreats, acknowledging that she probably has enough pictures for a blog post (mwahaaahaaa)!
"Just another day in the life of Georgia John and his sidekick, Ellie Oakley. Thank ya for your kind attention."

Erin,
I think you've aptly named these two characters....they certainly do look rough and tough.....
Glad you were able to get the drop on them and snap the pictures.....
Love you,
Mam
Well, I had no idea we had such rough and tumble characters roaming the area. Thankfully with GJ and EO on the watch I will be able to rest my sweet little head at night.
What fun!
Love you all,
Sister Beth

What lovely photos. These will certainly make treasured memories in a few years. I remember playing cowboys with my brother. We had a delightful time taking care of the bad guys.
Thanks for the delightful post. I made my way here from Betty's and am so glad I took her advise and stopped by for a visit.
