the duo set out again to finish their quest to find a rock that was truly the best

they came across a stream that was far too wide, Hector suggested, “perhaps we should just go back inside” but then they both saw it, the prettiest rock just across the stream, hidden in some stalks they looked at each other and with a nodding smile, agreed to get that rock, even if it took a while

with a day full of adventure, the two headed home they placed their new rock in a display dome

the two friends sat and talked about the fun they had and with smiles on their faces, went to sleep all happy and glad

Hector and Arlo danced and giggled with delight the new rock they found was shiny and white

on one bright and sunny day Arlo asked Hector,

Hector agreed, and with an excited jump the two went off making robotic thumps

Hector ran and chased after his friend he wasn’t going to let their adventure just end

with a running jump, Hector caught the squirrel Arlo tumbled off, his head in a whirl

together they traveled into the back yard, their adventure, from the beginning, wasn’t that hard

Arlo reminded, “if only we had a boat” Hector said with a sigh

“if we get wet, our batteries will fry”

Arlo shouted as he spotted a way they both crossed the stream without a delay

suddenly, a squirrel appeared all tall and stout Hector cried,

unfortunately, it was too late for Arlo the squirrel carried him off like he was his cargo
