today i went to the park with mom and dana. it was fun. there were loads of kids running around. i ran into a little boy who looked just like me. he had a shaved head, orange shirt and plaid pants on and so do i! it was weird. we ran around a bit together having fun. he then went off to do things with his dad. while running i tripped over a little kid. i fell over, he fell over. we laughed and then got into a fake fall competition. he does pretty good fake falls. then he started to run around in circles, i like doing that too! he wanted to follow me around so i showed him how to do some big boy things. some of the things were a little hard for him and his mom said- don't worry, when you're a little older you can do it, just like my mom says. crazy.
dana and mom eventually rounded me up and we set off in the car for our days adventure. today we went to wye mills. it's a little town out in the corn fields. they have a stream, a mill with a water wheel, a very old tree that fell over and that's about it really. we mostly went to see the mill. since there was a big storm not much was going on at the mill. the lady there was very nice though. she let us poke around the basement. it was flooded during the storm and smelled very weird. i got to see some belts and gears. we went upstairs. the lady showed us around. she let me raise the grind stone. i had to turn a wheel and that turned some gears and the big heavy stone lifted up. the guide lady told us all about the different parts of the machines and how things work. i got to grind some corn with a hand grinder. that was great fun. i did like 5 hoppers worth. at the end of the tour i then went back to all the machines and talked about how each one worked. the lady said i did such a good job i could stay the rest of the day and run the place. mom wouldn't let me though. she bought some bags of flour and honey, then off we went.
on the way home we stopped at uncle matt's. ronnie wasn't there so i just sat on the couch while dana helped uncle matt with a quick job. dana didn't take long. we got back in the car and went home to easton.
mom got my lunch and i ate it up.
that's my day really. i had a little nap. got up and just played with the remote controlled truck in the backyard. lazy summer afternoon for me.
