You would have to see Miz Anne when one of her babies is threatened, or
someone invades her space. She's an excellent shot with a pistol plus
her eyes get real squinty and her face turns red when she's really,

they would fight so I could hide behind either of them. Of course I
would stick out on both sides when I was hiding.
