A Few Silly Things

We've seen a few silly things lately...

 At the hospital in Jackson Hole, some gardeners were replanting a courtyard...

 And the boys spotted this right away in the parking lot ...

This goofball kid of mine came up with this outfit all on his own.  He told us he was being a "fat fireman."

He gets that from Curious George - the original book, where George accidentally dials the fire station and the thin fireman grabs one arm and the fat fireman grabs the other arm and they take him to prison for falsely reporting a fire.  There are a lot of taboo things in that book.  For instance, he's ready for bed after a nice dinner and a nice pipe.  But it's a favorite of the five year old. 

 We're coming into some nice fall colors now.  The leaves in the town park are starting to change.

 We stopped at the park Wednesday night and ran into one of the kids who had been in preschool last year with the five year old.  It was nice for them to play together again.

See all the leaves on the ground?  When we first arrived, the five year old told me, "They need to rake!"  It must be a common idea among kids.  Later I heard another little boy at the park tell his dad, "I should have brought my rake."
