    Hmmm. Might take a little bit of time to get those leaves up using a Frisbee. Let her work at it awhile, then give her a trash can lid.

      Nice. We have a new 18-hole course here in WV, just two miles from my home. I've played it a few times.
      Great time with kiddos.

        I became a step-grandpa a little early in life.

        Gotta start 'em early:


        Same kid, the next summer. He seems to like dual-sporting:








        Some rock-n-roll potential with his big sister:

        2005 KLR685, Aztec Pink - Turd II.3, the ReReReTurdening
        2015 Yamaha FJ-09, Magma Red Power Corrupts...

                  Younger step grandpa here too. "Papa Roger" is what the grand kiddos call me. There's six so far but all in other states.

                  Play dough time.

                    For reasons I will never fathom, I have been dubbed "Papaw" whereas the biological grandfathers are called "Grandpa". It's all good.

                        Fun with kiddo in leaf cart.

                        She squeeling with delight.
                        Ride leaf cart! Ride leaf cart! Faster! Up Ramp, in trailer!

                        Her mother may not like it. Could get dirty. Could maybe get hurt.

                        Hey, I only dumped her out once. (turned too sharp and up the ramp at same time, my bad.)
                        Was a little bit of wimpering, then we were right back at it.

                          Of all the things I could influence the grand kids.... lets see...

                          some things like:

                          Conservative politics or liberal politics or apathy or anarchism.....

                          Conservative church or liberal church or no church.....


                          American football or rugby or soccer.....


                          Michigan state or Univ of Mich.


                          And, here in Grand Haven : The all important divisive issue: Fricano Pizza or Clover Bar Pizza.

                          We are corrupting the kids, against thier parents.

                          Yah, this is a Fricano Pizza house. Influencing the kiddo that way.

                          Write it on the door post.
                          Wear it on our heads.
