Summer Times

Summer always brings fun things to do. Here are a few.

Tasker was all ready for the round-up. Trouble is, those toys just don't round-up with a shoo like the cows do. I missed when he had the blade of grass in his mouth.

Some new critters joined the home stead. There had been some larger ones but they got too hard to handle.

There was a session of summer school. It was given for all ages in a one room school house.
The desks were from a few years in the past, but they fit the building.

Recess was enjoyed by all of the students.

Some of us even took a train ride. It was scenic and approved by Mom who had to point out where her kids were sitting.

We thought that the military could use some help, so Leah and the kids did tank maneuvers with them.

Trinceton and his co-pilot also helped the navy with their jet flying. They had visitors and pictures before take off.

After all the work, it was time for summer fun of cherry seed spitting. Trinceton took first for his age group with 17 feet.
Tasker took lessons and did well also. He went all the way to the end of their paper measure.
Kiana had desire, but "girls don't spit!"
Beginners didn't have a category, but should have. "Darn, is that all the further it went?"
After all that work and spitting it was time to relax and watch some boat racing, do some swimming,
and play a game of peek-a-boo.

How has your summer been going?

Sounds like great fun. Where did you go?

I'm a little jealous of the tank ride.
