Sprinkler Jumping

The Central Coast of California was having a heat wave (aka Summer) while we were there.

Is there a better way to enjoy really hot weather? (If you'r under 10.)
Luke, Leif, Ivy.
Ivy seems to have the jump on the boys. Maybe she has wings hidden in that bathing suit somewhere! Make a note boys. Or maybe the goggles and tongue help.


Sprinkler jumping - a new Olympic sport.

A Neat Trick

 Dad really wanted to get a photo with Lola, the youngest great Grandchild. She had not had a chance to get acquainted with them yet and was not so sure!


 Lola goes from angry to startled to bemused when Dad hits on the novel approach of teasingly copying her squall and everyone, all the onlookers/photographers, loudly join the bawling chorus. That was the last thing she expected! But the sequence is priceless. The last one is my favorite.
