The Old Old Farmyard is a metaphor for what the world should be: a mixture of people, animals, sky, planets, moons, shooting stars, rainstorms, snow and haystacks. The Old Author was a high jumper in high school. He placed 5th in league in high jump his senior year. He still has a rusty metal somewhere.
The Old Mice see everything. They publish Old MuckRaker (The Old Old Farmyard News (“All the Old Muck that is such Yuck to Rake”)).
