Summer fun and imagination

Kellen and his magic glasses.

Seth and Kellen's "Woo"

I am sure there are many people who wonder what in the world people do in small towns. Aside from squirrel chasing, we also have police who are called upon to remove deer from the women's bathroom at City Park. (That was a big crowd pleaser.) Also every night in the summer we have baseball and softball games. With those come the most important attraction---open concession stands.
Also, my grandsons have "woo". For those of you who are older than 12 and not around young boys, the term "woo" comes from some cartoon called (what I understood to be) Challenge Showdown. It is actually Shalon's Showdown------only wait, it is spelled with an X, more like Xailon's Showdown. Four days ago Seth and Kellen were in my basement gathering stuff, of which there is plenty down there. They found to use a comb, old gloves, plastic golf clubs, a blanket, parts of games, balls, an incredible hulk hand, a scarf and on and on. They drew pictures of a star, a tree and something that resembled a fish with a space helmet. When I asked what this collection represented, they told me "Woo". I asked for further information, to which they assured me there was a web-detangler, a shadow cape, a glove of justice, a sword of defense, and they continued. If it sounds as if I am making up these names----I probably am.
I commended them for using their imagination, to which Seth replied, "Jamie told us we had to." They played for three days with their "woo", dragging it from house to house. The "woo" has now returned to its' origin in my basement to await another mandatory imagination day.
Yesterday we all tried out the threeD chalk. Actually the chalk is just sidewalk chalk, it is the glasses which are magic. The grandchildren and Gavin had a great time decorating my driveway. It really is strangely 3D like.
So what is obivious is that small towns are exciting, do not ever question that.
