The Mystery Files of Roxie Leighton











{July 18, 2010}   My Apologies / The Case of the Missing Pink Feathers

So sorry for the lack of an update, if anyone is reading this…if not then no harm done :D , I went out of state plus I’m in the process of moving and packing etc. Unfortunately I lost my notebook with all my cases in the chaos so I’ll have to skip a few stories and add them later when I find them. Oh and I’m switching back to my normal way of writing just cuz….well cuz I want to now on with the update…

Juienne Knack contacted Roxie about a prized flamingo statue that disappeared. Unclear as to what it is about a yard ornament that can be prized, Roxie decided to check it out.

Julienne spent more time gabbing about the estimated value of the statue and its regal origins than telling Roxie anything useful about recovering the piece. I sent Roxie to ask around town to see if anybody has seen this prized piece.

First person on her list was Mary Baker.

"Flamingos have to be one of the most gaudy choices in modern lawn furniture"

After asking her husband Lincoln and son Newton the leads haven/t been much of help in the flamingo search and Roxie was back to square one. Unfortunately Juilenne was harping about how the flamingo is a piece of artwork. Perhaps it might be found at the local art gallery? Roxie was about to find out.

Thinking she’s been had, Roxie found the flamingo at the art gallery but wasn’t sure if it belonged there. Julieene is so desperate to convince people the flamingo is a work of art that she probable put it there….and forgot about it? Regardless it was time to return the flamingo. Julienne was delighted to learn the flamingo was foundĀ  at the gallery.

Julienne: “how fitting”

Roxie: “How deranged” *accepts her fee and backs up slowly*
