Go Along For The Ride

This must have been a fun day.

My great uncle carting around two cousins - Truro, MA.

In the process of writing, it can feel as if you are being dragged through a field in a wooden box. You don't know exactly where you are going. It's bumpy. But if you're willing to go along for the ride, it can be great fun.

  14. Looks like great fun! Bet uncle would be in a lot of trouble if he were caught doing that today, though.

  15. See, you don't have to pay a fortune for kids toys. Sometimes you can have the most fun with stuff you already own!
