Terry, There was something in the basement. I didn't know what it was but it was scary. I heard it whistle and it was making a clickty clackty sound. I ran over to the steps and caught a glimpse of it. Something new was at the bottom of the steps! I only looked for a second though because of the noise. I barked. Penny Cat said to keep my tail on, it's only Dad's trains. He moved some to the tables at the bottom of the steps. She said, listen to the train Freddie, it's relaxing. She fell asleep!!! I kept barking. Mom told me to come here, and I usually listen, but the thing kept whistling and clickty clackting so I kept barking. I did go over to Mom and we looked down the steps together. I only peeked at first and I kept barking. Then I saw it. OH. It was a train on the table. WHEW! Not so scary when I actually saw it. I kept barking anyway until Mom said PIPE DOWN. Sometimes I can't turn off my bark! OXO Fred.
