RB007 Miracles aka Pray for a Miracle aka Miracle Mystery

Our exciting RANGER BILL tale for Tuesday afternoon, May 19, 2026, is:
RB006 The Fire Bug or, in Bill's own words, The Iron Fire Bugs
The railroad engines in Randolph Thompson's Red Valley Freight Line are threatening to burn up all the trees in Giant Pine National Park. Many of Thompson's engines are old coal-fired steam engines. Randolph pushes the engines hard so that they belch out volumes of smoke and sparks, setting the nearby dry forest ablaze.RANGER BILL for late Saturday morning, May 16, 2026:
RB111 The Prehistoric Monster
The circus has arrived at Junction City. A full-grown bull rhino is its main attraction. This particular rhino doesn't like being in the circus. The huge beast breaks his chains and charges off into the forest. Bill and the boys are called in to find and shoot the marauder before he hurts anyone or does any serious damage. Can our rangers safely corner this prehistoric monster? Will Stumpy's pride endanger the hunt and possibly endanger lives too?

Whistling Swans are also called Tundra Swans (Wikipedia) and Bewick's Swans. let's let Shawn give you more details about whistling swans.

Judge White sentences the three troublemakers to some hard time - on the trail with Bill and the rangers to experience what real tough men are like.
