Family Reunion At Oinkington Inn

Let’s stay at Oinkington Inn the easily pleased relative said. Her husband looked at brochure and said I’d rather be dead. The pigs are lovely, she replied. There is nothing to dread. He told her to go to her family reunion with her cousin Ned. The sows and hogs were truly placated and fine. We visited them near an old abandoned crystal mine. You should come next time to the reunion, she said. Best part is, a sow ran off with my mean cousin Ned.

Love the idea of "Oinkington Inn," Caren. It just cried out for a big ol' sow and a passle of piglets!

"Oinkington"? That's a very imaginative name for a pig's resort.
