The Royal Guard was almost overwhelmed!

12 64 Kens and 5 Bens were waiting in the Royal Mailbox this morning! KT escorted them up to the Royal Castle and into the Courtyard, where His Majesty ordered a round of refreshments for this group of distinguished looking gentlemen! We set under the shade of a Royal Cedar tree and they told His Majesty about their journeys, when they started travelling together and where all they had been. Some were widowers and some were free men (never married! HA HA), but they all wished to settle in KT's Royal Kingdom. KT sent 3 of them off to the Royal Bathes and when they returned they were very refreshed. His Majesty suggested they take a day tour of the Kingdom and return in the evening to a Royal Banquet in the Great Hall! KT then went off to the Royal Kitchen to alert the Royal Kitchen Staff to prepare a great feast for the evening meal. KT also met with the Royal Housekeeping Staff to see that they had proper accommodations for this evening.

Before they left to the Royal Tour, KT had the Royal Photographer snap a few pictures for the Royal Album. These are presented below for the enjoyment of His Majesty's Readers!

Beautiful pickups KT, although I'm getting a different vibe on the fate of these fine distinguished gentlemen - I think these are Royal mugshots for the royal dungeon! Surely they've escaped the sentence of drawn and quartering, but will they ever see the light of day again ??? Is all this romantic fairy tale storytelling of cedar tree shade and royal baths a trap ?!? for the next gaggle of gregarious gentlemen?

Well, when you reach the age of these gentlemen, and your family perhaps decides to put you in a nursing home against your will, then perhaps you will understand their interests to live in KT’s Royal Kingdom, where they are free to roam and return each day for a free meal and a dry warm place to lay their collective heads each evening!

AND while staying in The Royal Kingdom, they are for the foreseeable future safe from those terrible people who want to melt them all down, for profit! Better to live with a true silver hoarder than to be owned by a silver trader!

Again your highness has offered sanctuary to weary travelers. Well done sire.

Royal Thanks, hoser! Weary silver travelers are KT’s Royal Obsession!

Very nice additions to Your Kingly Estate! Do any of the Kens or Bens have carpentry or masonry experience? At the rate you are welcoming in Weary Silver Travelers, perhaps a large, well planned addition to the Royal Castle may be in order, as even with your voluminous Castle perhaps more room may be needed? Truly a magnanimous Royal Gift of Generosity you have, my compliments!

First, thank you for your kind comments, LovestheShiny! KT wondered if you might comment! LOL
There is a set of Royal Carpenters, thank goodness, that arrived last year and we are certainly keeping them busy! First they built 5 Farmhouses and barns for the farmers that arrived last year, and a bakery and other shops in our growing community. But KT will be on the lookout for some carpenters and electricians, actually construction workers of all types. Royal Thanks for that suggestion! One just never knows, as His Majesty does not pick and choose, but houses all who come his Way!
