Rodney the Raccoon (A Nort the Newt story)

Nort the Newt here to tell you about my friend Rodney the Raccoon.  Rodney was a great kid and fun to hang out with.  He was new in my neck of the forest and lonely.  So I introduced myself and we became friends.  We would play games, run races.  I though it would be nice for him to make more friends.  So I started introducing him to other kids in the forest.  My brother Nathan, Steve the Salamander, and I became his best friends.  Which proved to be a friendship for a very long time.
          Later on in life Rodney, Steve, Nathan, and I would go to a club called "The Hawk".  (This place was owned by some distant relative of Harry's).  Nectar or Honey juice were our drinks of choice.  Rodney, Steve, and Nathan always flirting with the girls. I already had my girl, So I just sat and drank.  More than once the bartender had to wake us up because the club was closing and we had drank so much we had passed out.
          Of course there comes a time when you decide to get cleaned up.  When that time had come, the four of us made a pact to help each other resist the drink.  When one of us started slipping, the others would be right there to help them stay strong.  Getting sober was good, Steve's sister Sally never liked me drinking anyways.  Plus the others were getting into relationships as well.

          Rodney has remained a good friend and has helped me on many projects I have worked on.  When he got married to his wife Rhonda the Raccoon, Nathan, Steve, And I were there to help celebrate their joy.
