Ain’t No Party Like a Pine Cove Party

by Jessica Anthony

You’ll never believe what just happened! As we were combing through the Inside the Cove emails over the last four years, our computer screen started glitching, the speakers were making weird sounds, and then we saw one of those flash across the screen! “One of those, what?” you say? It was one of those fourteen-eyebrowed, three-toed, eleven-legged, purple polka-dotted, pygmy elephants! It took one of those eyebrows and it made a little wave. We took that to mean “come a little closer” and when we did, we realized it was SPEAKING. HUMAN. LANGUAGE. And it said, “I heard a ru-ru-ru-RU-mor” that today (well, the 21st) is Inside the Cove’s birthday! So start your clapping and let’s look at the top 5 favorite posts over the years with us!
