Curiosity Drains the Country Stream and Fills the City Rooftop
WeatherViolet2 September 2010
First, in the Country, a warm day finds Curious George sailing his toy boat in his favorite pond and stream, but when Curious George's toy boat plunges over a waterfall, the damage causes the toy boat not to float.

So, Curious George asks Mrs. Renkins to repair his toy boat, which she gladly does, and so Curious George is able to sail again, and he is also pleased to see a rainy night because this means more water for the pond tomorrow.

But, the next morning, Curious George is stunned to discover that the pond is missing and the stream is merely trickling because of strange wall, which causes the water to be blocked upstream.

Well, Bill the Country Neighbor Boy explains to Curious George that the Beaver Family has built this dam, but not to get too close to them because the Beaver Family doesn't want anyone to watch.

So, Curious George decides to build a dam of his own and asks Mrs. Renkins for her spare wooden objects, while Mrs. Renkins volunteers the use of Leslie the Cow and the wooden cart to carry the spare wood to the stream.

Now, Curious George's dam keeps falling apart until he learns the proper ways to block the stream, and this displaces the Beaver Family, who move upstream to rebuild another dam, which displaces Curious George, or at least until the next day, when Curious George, Bill and the Beaver Family discovers that the storm has leveled a tree across the stream to displace them all.

So, what will "Curious George and the Dam Builders" do next?

-----

Next, in the City, it's a perfect day for Curious George to wander through the streets, where he soon encounters Betsy and Steve, who play a game of basketball in a back alley.

Well, Steve has just made his record 24 consecutive hoop shot, and now it's Curious George's turn to try to outperform Steve.

But, after making one shot, Curious George lands the basketball onto the back of a pickup truck, and its driver pulls away, and so Betsy, Steve and Curious George are no longer able to play basketball because they cannot stop the driver.

Now, after Betsy suggests miniature golf as an alternative game, Betsy, Steve and Curious George arrive at the miniature golf course, where Steve scores 5 points, and Besty scores 8 points, and Curious George scores 27 points on the first round.

And, by the end of the game, Betsy scores 58 points, and Steve scores 35 points, and Curious George scores 257 points, thinking that he has won the game until Betsy explains that in golf, players try to achieve the lowest score to win.

Well, onto the roof of Apartment Building 7 go Betsy, Curious George and Gnocchi, Chef Pisghetti's pet Cat, to build a miniature golf course of their very own. The Man with the Yellow Hat gives Curious George permission to take as many items from the apartment as he wishes to play with to build the miniature golf course on top of the roof.

Now, when Steve arrives upon the roof of Apartment Building 7 to tell Betsy that Aunt Margaret says to be back for dinner in an hour, Curious George and Betsy invite Steve to play upon their rooftop miniature golf course, during which time Betsy scores 6 points, and Steve scores 6 points, and Curious George wins by scoring 1 point.

So, as Curious George, Betsy and Steve use a stick, a mallet, a guitar and a pipe to shoot miniature golf upon this course, which Betsy and Curious George find easy, but Steve finds difficult even with the help of Gnocchi, Chef Pisghetti's pet Cat, as part of the course, the totals find that Steve ends up with 40 points, and Betsy ends up with 25 points, and Curious George ends up with 21 points, so will this be counted as "Curious George's Low High Score?"
