We found one!!

We found one of the R2D2 mailboxes!! It turns out that I have driven past it almost every day for the past few weeks and never even noticed it! I thought it would be funny for Ethan to wear a little Star Wars gear when visiting it, so here I present Darth Vader versus R2D2...

It is in a business part of town and we went on a weekend day, so there was hardly anyone there. I guess that's a good thing, because as we were going back to the car, Ethan says "That wasn't so embarrassing after all!" He thought people would think we were odd attacking a mailbox with a light saber.

What else... we got a basketball hoop. The backboard is broken (more like non-existant) so it's a bit harder to shoot hoops without losing the ball to the yard, but it's easily fixable and it was going to be thrown away. Ethan loves it, and our runway of a driveway is a good court for it.

I'll call this next photo the first of a series I'd like to title "Sleeping Jake" - I thought cats like to sleep all curled up in a ball. Not this cat. He likes to sprawl out. He especially likes to sleep on his back. It can be on the floor, the couch, the bed, wherever... this is on the couch. It is an odd angle, but you get the idea. More to come.

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by!!
