I am happy to report my new travelling companion is cute, looks good in red, and is up for just about anything.
I am less enthusiastic to note said companion is a 203-year-old gnome named Cedric with a fondness for homemade brew and a pronounced dislike of cats.
A Christmas present, Cedric came with explicit instructions that I must:
1. Take him wherever I go.
2. Photograph him.
3. Blog about his travels.
Cedric's maiden trip was a holiday jaunt to Sharbot Lake, Ontario, where he got a taste of country air and deftly avoided being eaten by a wolverine.
I suspect Cedric is a bit of a ladies gnome. He was in town scant hours before making the acquaintance of an unidentified female gnome (a century or so his senior) who hails from a small Dutch village.
And to think I was counting on him to be my wingman.
