This little girl/gypsies knows a good deal when she sees one! How do you like her hair do? She was trying her best to annoy us and it did not work.
Now back to her good deal...
While we were on vacation in the Smokey Mountains, we stopped in Cherokee, North Carolina. Mary Margaret saw these Indians dressed and getting ready for the Native American Dances. She begs for us to stop and get her picture with a real live Indian. Tim gives in. The first was dawg drunk and spilling his beer everywhere. He told her he would be glad to take his picture with her and he did. For free. Good deal right?
The second one is sober and smarter.
She asks for a picture.
He says, you'll have to take it with your own camera.
She says ok.
I get my cell phone out and take the picture.
She asks him if he can dance.
He says yes and the rest is muffled to me. She's all happy and runs back to the truck real fast and runs back and hands him a $10.00 and walks off really fast, almost a run. She looks stunned.
I asked what happened.
She says he told me he'd do a picture and a dance and that he works for tips. So I went and got some of my money, a $10 and asked him for change and he ran.
This would be the part where she got the BAD DEAL.
The next day, we rode the train for the 2nd time, and she tells the story to one of the train workers. He laughs and says...Was it the dude in Cherokee? She says yes and shows him the picture. He says....
He's not even Indian.
He's Mexican.
Me and Tim say...Thumbs up Mary Margaret.
