Forest and Bandit the Ferrets Go for a Ride

Forest and Bandit had just received a new present from their owner. He had bought a nice new remote controlled car for them to play in. The Subaru had a stereo system that rocked. It had doors and a tailgate that opened with the push of a button. The car had sound effects like a horn that honked, tire squeeling sounds and engine sounds. The engine raced louder as the car went faster. The Subaru was white and large enough to fit both Forest the ferret and Bandit the ferret. The tailgate was decorated with the “cross-country” label and the license plate that read “Bandit2”. This is because the car is named after Bandit the ferret and because two ferrets can ride comfortably together in the car. Forest and Bandit decided to go for a ride at the gravel pit. The Subaru was able to get around on grass. It could also get down the two track gravel road. Forest and Bandit could take it easy since they did not even have to drive the car. James drove the Subaru using the remote control. Forest enjoyed looking out the windows as the Subaru moved across the grass and down the gravel road. Forest saw geese flying and landing. He heard red wing blackbirds tweeting through the window. Bandit was impressed that the Subaru covered ground so fast. He also liked the way the car went over the uneven terrain on the road. Forest and Bandit were cruising down the dirt road in their remote controlled car. The sun was bright and it was a great day for a ride. The engine raced louder as the car sped up. Suddenly a squirrel darted across the road in front of Forest and Bandit’s car! The squirrel was almost the same size as their car. Forest and Bandit watched as the squirrel stopped in the road in front of their car! James turned the car suddenly and the tires squeeled. The Subaru lurched onto the grass on the side of the road. The squirrel turned around and disappeared into the brush. James put the car back on the road and Forest and Bandit resumed their ride. The car turned into part of the old gravel pit. Forest and Bandit watched as their car drove slowly through the crusted sand. They passed small trees that looked large to them from inside the Subaru. Then the car turned around and headed back to the big car to take them home. Bandit and Forest completed their ride in the Subaru at the gravel pit. James opened their doors like a chauffeur with the push of a single button on the remote control. Bandit and Forest felt like movie stars. The ferrets exited the Subaru and stepped onto their green carpet of grass. They would now go back to their cage for food, water and treats. The ferrets looked forward to many more adventures in their Subaru.
