“It’s going to be dark soon.  
I know you would like to
walk, but wouldn’t you
rather fly?” asked Bizby.
“Right!  I’ll just sprout wings
and take to the sky,”
frowned Grandpa, mad at
himself for not seeing the
tree branch.
“I could fly you back if you
like,” suggested Bizby.
“You wouldn’t drop me, would
you?” asked Grandpa.
“No problem, just lean a
little bit forward and enjoy
the view,” said Bizby.
“I don’t know about this!”
thought Grandpa.

Grandpa always trusted
Bizby, but flying on the
back of a little squirt
can be a hair-raising
experience.  Especially
if the little squirt is the
fastest flyer in the
village.  That is how he
got the name Bizby,
“busy as a bee.”

Within minutes they were zooming
through the air right to Grandma’s
porch, much to her surprise.
“We found an abandoned city!”
yelled Bizby.
“Would you put a lid on it and let
me tell it!” grumbled Grandpa.  
“That’s right, we found an
underground city several miles
from here in the desert.”
“Maybe we should talk it over
with the Wheelrights and the
Powerplants before we get in
over our heads,” suggested
Grandma.
“I think you are right.  Let’s go
down to the pond.  I’ll just hop on
Bizby and met you down there,”
laughed Grandpa.

“That would be the
“Lost City of
Shroom”.  It has
been lost for
hundreds of years.  
Most people
thought it was just
a legend,” said one
of the powerplants
as they looked at
each other in
amazement.

The legend says…

There came a time when the sun
was so hot all the people had to
move underground to keep from
getting scorched.  They found a
huge cavern with a fresh water
spring.  The only things that
would grow in the dark were
mushrooms.  The villagers
discovered a bunch growing deep
in the cave and found them to be
very tasty.  Each color tasted
different.  Some even tasted like
candy.  The cave was lost along
with the village that lived there.  
A huge sandstorm covered the
entrance and no one has seen the
people or the cave since.

That night Grandpa and
Bizby planned out the best
way to explore the cavern.
“We’ll send in the ship’s
robot first and have it
build a staircase and move
any rocks and junk that are
in the way.  This way no one
will get hurt,” said Grandpa.
“We can mark the entrance
so it will never be lost
again,” added Bizby.
“Let’s all get to bed early
so we’ll be refreshed in the
morning,” said Grandpa.  
But he knew no one would
sleep with all the
excitement.
