What an incredible gift, words canoooot describe my feelings of gratitude and looove for my constituents. I signed on as Mayor to dooo whatever I can tooo improve the environment of my beloooved bipeds. I never dreamed, yes quadrupeds dream, that you would be doooing that for me.

I am incredibly moooved by the love and support generated by the letter tooo the editor raising the idea of an ooold fashioned barn raising. My assistant opened a bank account for me at Key Bank and some of you have made generous depooosits.

We have been able tooo greatly improve my office area for more comfortable winter living. In the spring we hope to raise enough resources tooo build me a new barn/office. We have a way tooo goo. I know, with your continuing help, we’ll get there in time. Thank you from the booottom of my big heart, the place where I hold all of you!

You have been wonderful in trying to help me through this cold, wet, difficult time of year. Please remember the ooother quadrupeds in your life. They all need warmth, clean water and goood foood to get them through the season.

My assistants and I want tooo wish you all a very happy, healthy New Year and may our town’s example of the loving support and peaceful co-existence of our bipeds and quadrupeds be spread throughout the world.

With Love,

Mayor April D. Bovine and friends.
