MORE Fun?!

 


I know.  We were tired, too, but the park containing the third carousel also has a free water park, so, following John's orders, we topped off our visit with an hour of play.


He is such a dictator!



 





Luci parked herself by this little spout for at least 20 minutes.  




The water would periodically vanish in order to fill up the yellow buckets in the sky (see above), and each time it spouted back, she screeched with delight.


 






 








After a while, the girls got tired and cold.  It was nearly four o'clock, and we hadn't eaten since breakfast, so we wrapped things up.






 


 
 


Next stop was McDonald's for the girls to use their dollar gift cards from a local reading program followed by the creamiest custard around.  Joey's charges $1.50 for a "small" custard cone, which is actually a huge custard cone, and less than that for Italian ice, so a splurge for all is less than ten bucks. 

Thanks, Joey's.  We freely give our devotion and our free advertising and our ten bucks.

While Millie is teaching Corynn how to pick berries quickly and with good cheer, and you are showing me what wild leeks look like and where to find them- perhaps John can show Matt how to pull spontaneous FUN out of his hat for the family good?

After your beautiful girl freshens, you're not going to care a bit about daytrips, 'cause you'll be too busy eating cheeeeeese, and it'll be my turn to lament! :)

who are you kidding? It is gonna be ME who is milking. Of that, I am certain.

And you're already looking for reduced hazmat suits, I bet. :) (I assume Matt will have to teach you, first, though, before he teaches John.)
