Ranger Rick, sometimes disguised as Ranger Rita, has become
a legend within Pass Patrol. Rarely does
a campfire turn to ashes without at least one good Ranger Rick story. He and Outlaw have a unique
relationship. Kinda like Smokey and the
Bandit. The stories about Ranger Rick
chasing Outlaw from Canada to Mexico are fueled by the wild imaginations of
Sundance, Sunshine, Wild One, and other Pass Patrol members, but Outlaw never
misses a chance to turn a one line story into a flaming novel.
Interpreting a Ranger Rick story takes a little
practice. Sundance always says there is
a spark of truth in very story, but finding that spark sometimes takes the
combined effort of everyone who was there.
A good story always ends with, “That’s exactly the way I remember it.”
For example, if we say “Ranger Rick flew his plane around in
circles looking for us but we were hidden in the trees."
The spark of truth is probably that a plane was seen in the
sky sometime during the day.
Example: “Ranger Rick sent the Sheriff after us, but we gave
him the slip.”
