arrived in Jamaica just in time to help

me build a sand castle ooh I love sand

castles great come on let's find a good

spot to build

[Music]

one this this looks like a good spot

right next to the water Grandpa always

says wet sand makes for the best sand

castles because wet sand sticks together

easily I think your grandpa is right

then this is the perfect spot great

let's start building we can use my beach

toys okie dokie

up there now that we have our Castle

Towers we can fill in the castle walls

room vroom this is going to look great

when it's done don't you think so Franny

I think it's going to look

[Music]

fantastic it does look fantastic Franny

except for one small small detail a flag

every Castle needs a

flag H I don't see anything we can use

for a flag oh except for this tiny

feather it'll have to

do here Johnny try

this I think this is the best sand

castle ever woo it sure is hot in the

sun let's get something cold to eat M I

like the sound of that follow me then

ribbit ribbit ribbit ribit come on let's

follow

Johnny ribbit ribbit ribbit h h

[Music]

kids M my icy treat is Pine appolicious

mhm and when we're done eating we can

use a spoons to drop pictures on our

sand castle that's a great idea you

might even say it's Spooner

[Music]

rific I can't wait to decorate our sand

castle using our spoons me

too our sand castle it's gone sand

castles can't just disappear can they I

don't think so H I think we need to look

for Clues right detective Johnny right

detective Franny we're on the

[Music]

case

h Johnny did you happen to notice

there's a lot less sand on the beach and

a lot more water now that you mention it

you're right it's as if the ocean moved

further up the beach hey over here it

looks like our Footprints have been

washed away great galopy you're right

even the fancy patterns are gone the

ones we made when we played in the sand

let's look for more

clues

Sammy it's our Castle flag what's our

flag doing in The Watcher H we need to

take another look at our Clues okie

dokie our Castle flag is floating in the

water and our Footprints have

disappeared along with our sand castle

and the ocean water is further up the

beach past the spot where we were

playing in the sand are you thinking

what I'm thinking I think I know what

happened the tide came

in I think you're right yeah how could I

forget the seawat Moves In and Out

across the beach many times during the

day so as the tide swept in the water

must have washed away our sand castle

then the tide carried in other things

like these shells these twigs and oh

another

feather you know what that means frny we

can use them to build an even better

sand

castle these shells and twigs look great

on our new sand castle and this time we

won't have to worry about the tide

because we built our sand castle further

away from the

shoreline thanks for all your help

Franny you're welcome it was

fun especially pretending to be

detectives do you want to go for a swim

I'd love to but I have to go home now

there's something I have to do okay

Franny hope to see you soon me too

goodbye Johnny

that was

[Music]

fantastic a

[Music]

feather another treasure for my shoe box

grandpa will you come outside with me I

want to look for Clues just like Johnny

and I did on the beach

Clues okay Franny let's

go so Franny what kind of Clues are we

looking for we're going to figure out

what happened to my leaf pile H maybe if

we start from the beginning this is

where I rake the leaves into a neat

little pile then you call me over to the

treeh house to look at that spider web

we saw a tiny Leaf blow up into the air

and it got stuck here and then H I

turned around and I know what happened

what happened Franny a pile of leaves

blew all over the yard when the wind

blew I think you're right Franny good

work you're quite the detective I had a

little practice well perhaps we should

finish raking the leaves into another

pile this time somewhere sheltered from

the wind Absa friend Ely where will my

feet take me

[Music]

tomorrow snack time pickle come and get

it

oh grandpa yes Franny is it time for our

snack now Pickle's having his you're

right let me first finish putting on

these laces you keep working I'll get us

something to eat

[Music]

H cookies crackers

uh-uh what would grandpa like better a

glass of milk or yogurt Sammie we can

have both we can

have a strawberry yogurt milkshake first

some yogurt

then some milk careful not to spill any

and some fresh strawberries yum

yum careful it's all

gloopy

H I'm not supposed to use any kitchen

machines all by myself Grant oh if I

call for Grandpa's help he'll know all

about the milkshake and that'll spoil

the surprise

a

[Music]

customer good day but what can we do for

you I work at the Pioneer Village near

Dawson Creek but my shoes are so dusty

and dingy they look like they actually

came from pioneer

days with a bit of old-fashioned shoe

polish I'll have the pair looking as

good as new please Franny will you take

these to the fixed box for me sure thing

Grandpa

where will my feet take me

[Music]

today cushiony Clover fantastic

dress where am

[Music]

I moo hello

uh hello no silly over here Jeepers it's

my Pioneer Friend Lucy hi Lucy what are

you doing over there I'm getting milk I

thought milk came from the store milk

comes from dairy cows like buttercup

it's a horse and wagon ride to the

nearest General Store so instead we grow

and make just about everything using our

very own hands

oh sounds like hard work it is but

Pioneers take pride in being able to

live off the land Buttercup has plenty

of milk to share both for her calf and

with my family would you like to try

milking Buttercup

absolutely this is buttercup's utter

it's where she stores her milk just pull

a bit here and there you go that's it

zammie swear if I'm squeezing too hard

Buttercup oh milking never hurts a cow

if I forget to milk Buttercup for a

couple of days buttercups utter would

get very heavy and

uncomfortable I certainly don't want

that to happen oh Buttercup won't let

you forget she'd be mowing

plenty there that's the morning milking

I'll milk Buttercup again in the evening

this way

Franny look at all this food we store

everything we can from the summer so we

have good things to eat when it's too

cold outside for things to grow these

apples potatoes and onions will go in

The Root Cellar The Cellar is a room

underneath our Log Cabin this is

strawberry jam I picked the strawberries

myself these are dried beans mom will

make a pot of soup with those there's

pickles Hickory nuts and

peaches M I smell bread mom just baked

those loaves in the wood stove oven

they're still too hot to eat nothing's

better with a slice of warm bread than a

tasty terrific glass of milk I'll say

but today buttercups milk won't be for

drinking we're going to make butter will

you bring that stone jar over here

please Franny okie

dokie it's a bit chilly the stone jar

keeps it nice and cool perfect for

making butter how can you make butter

out of milk buttercups milk is full of

cream see how the cream Rises to the top

we just skim off the cream and put it in

to the butter

churner and this special paddle is

called the

[Music]

Dasher listen that's the cream

churning sounds like the cream is being

mixed fantastically fast the churning

makes the cream become thicker thick

enough to put on top of fruit or cake

just like whipped cream exactly if you

keep on churning the thick cream starts

to stick together even more so much that

it becomes solid better I'll help two

hands are better than

one we're both butter

fingers

[Music]

hi without the

Dasher how will we turn the cream into

butter there must be something else we

can use

H try this spoon

Lucy oops is there anything

[Music]

longer here you

go the spoon's still not long enough I

can barely mix the cream

ooh instead of a longer spoon let's pour

the cream into a smaller container great

idea

[Music]

I think you'll need to stir

[Music]

faster wait a dingdong minute stirring

fast doesn't make the cream into butter

it just makes the cream fly out of the

bowl if only there was a way to cover

the bowl like a

lid I could cover the bowl with my apron

but that would just make my apron wet

there must be something we can use

oh shake shake

shake are you thinking what I'm thinking

Lucy you can really shake things up in

these jars and nothing falls out of the

jars because of the lids

see let's try

[Music]

it here goes

shake shake

[Music]

shake shakey shakey shakey shakey shake

shake shake

shake shake shake shake shakey shakey

[Music]

Shake golden deliciousness it worked

butter so if the butter is there what's

left in here M buttermilk mom will use

that for buttermilk pancakes and

Cornbread Pioneers never let anything go

to waste ready for some fresh baked

bread with freshly churned butter thanks

Lucy but I'd better scadaddle I've got

some shake shake shaking to do at home

thanks for helping Franny see you soon

bye Lucy and bye

Buttercup thanks for the milk

that was Pioneer

[Music]

riic a

clover another treasure for my shoe box

snack time

Grandpa H what do we have

here I put strawberries milk and yogurt

together but if you give it a

shake shake shake shake shake

shake now we have a strawberry yogurt

milkshake how did you come up with such

a good idea I visited my friend Lucy and

Lucy's cow Buttercup in pioneer days

they didn't have many stores and made

everything by hand like making butter

from fresh

[Music]

milk I don't think I know Lucy the

Pioneer or Buttercup the cow but I do

know my frny has made me a delicious

snack
