Tommy, Missy and Dad. He kept her chained up till they got used to each other. He was still drinking apple juice but it wasn't long and he gave it up. Some people tried to tell me I should break him of it before he was ready to give it up but when you think about it, is it any different that today when adults all have water bottles attached to them?
I think he really liked getting dirty here. I still gave him baths but nobody had a hissy fit if he got dirt on him, except for the mud bath episode.
He said there was nothing to do so I took him outside and dumped the cars and trucks. I told him how when we were little we didn't have cars and trucks but we still made little villages in the weeds with sticks and acorns and what ever else we found. I think there used to be a cartoon strip in the paper called the Thimbleberry's about tiny people who lived in the weeds.
On the way back to Ohio we stopped to watch the buffalo at Darien.
