Hank's pal, side-kick, and Ranch Security subordinate is Drover. Now Drover has a mind like the pasture grounds after a springtime soaking. It's wet, soft and squishy! Not the best place for running cattle, if you know what I mean. Why it's near impossible for anything to scamper through Drover's mind without taking a few tumbles!

No, Drover's thoughts are more like butterflies... fragile wings fluttering among the wild flowers.

See if you can help Drover pin down some of those butterfly like thoughts. Drover will start an ol' saying. And since he is Drover.... he'll start thinking about just about anything else, too. Help Drover capture the ending of the saying. If you miss (more than likely in Drover's case), you'll make what we at the ranch call a Drover-ism!

In this activity phrases fly around Drover's head. The visitor helps Drover complete the saying - or pick any phrase to make a Drover-ism, a combination of two thoughts.

 

 

While the phrases fly, thought balloon scrolls through some things Drover might be thinking about:

 

 

And a sarcastic Hank keeps giving his opinion of Drover's thought process:
