— I’ll call. Can’t hurt!

Han Ola og han Per
by Peter J. Rosendahl, with new translations by John Erik Stacy
— I don’t like it that Decorah Posten is running our portraits all the time.
— No, not me either. Let’s go down there and order them to stop it.
— Per, did you know that I haven’t seen Decorah since I went to Breckenridge School?
— Well sir, I have only been there once myself.

— I bet it fell out when we drove over that rock down Big Canoe Hill.
— I suspected that right away. We are bound to find it back.
