He was about two here. Tommy not Tom...
He liked the kiddy pool but we had different neighbors then. Tommy was still wearing a diaper but he didn't like it. He would get in the pool with it on and take it off, hold it up and say "wet".
The neighbor lady called the cops on us. The cop told me she said that it was obscene and that her five year old daughter was getting "excited" because of him and she wanted him to put a stop to it.
The told me I had to keep him clothed in the back yard. He said anybody could say they found something in your yard offensive and you had to get rid of it.
I asked him what about her coming out there in the mornings in her almost there nighties. I was offended by that but he said as long as she was wearing something.
So I had to keep him clothed at all times. The odd thing was that her daughter would sit on the back porch with her legs spread apart playing with her privates even if no one was out there. You'll never know how glad I was when they moved.
They moved because the woman and her husband got into a terrible fight one morning. I saw her out there once again in her barely there nighty picking up parts of the television out of the yard.
Halfway between Grandma Bakers and Ohio there was a Native American shop. It was the usual tourist trap of junk made in China or Taiwan. Sometimes I got rocks there. This was a plaster buffalo. I don't think they approved but we let him pose on it. They had a big stone teepee for the entrance to the shop.

Diane took them to Florida for a vacation. This was some alligator place.
