There is some agreement that fairies like sweets.
HOWEVER, I don't think these ants are helping the fairies to bring the hapless Gummi Bear inside, I think they are appropriating it for themselves! |

I can just hear the bickering ants;
"We'll never get this thing down the hole!" "Stop complaining and LIFT!" "Hi Ho, Hi Ho! It's down the steps we go!" "I don't even like the green ones" "Did you know that gelatin is made from horse hooves?" "You just made that up!" "Why do those two get to RIDE?" "Quit your chatter and put your backs into it! It's nearly winter!" |

| October 26, 2006 Fairy Droppings at the Ark: I nearly skipped making my rounds. I was glad that I didn't! At first I thought someone had left a cauliflower! |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| A bottle cap, a pebble and a paperclip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The "cauliflower" turned out to be a "cinderella" sparkle covered pump filled with reall white roses! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Because it was in the corner, I thought it might have been left for a performer at the Ark.... | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ... when I went around the corner to the Selo-Shevel fairy door, I saw the other shoe! | I'm not sure how the fairies might get the shoe-vases inside, but there is always the possiblity of magic. After all these shoes sure appear to be magical! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The NEXT day, November 5, 2006, another dropping was added:
• a note written on a page from the blank book: |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
"Dear fariys
my name is Sophie Please come out I whant to see you" |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The day I first knew the Ann Arbor Distric Library had a fairy door, November 4, 2006, was the same day of the first fairy dropping there:
• another miniscule "pumpkin" • An "O" ring blank book |
