TRAM-POOL-INE

We really do have a hill billy back yard, just google our address and see for yourself.  There is a shed, a pick 'em up truck, a dirt bike, a go cart, a dozen or so bicycle carcasses (only 3 are operational), a refrigerator, a hot tub with a broken pump, a set of cannon wheels, a smoker, two charcoal grills, one propane grill, two camp stoves, an above ground swimming pool and a $10 trampoline.  The ice finally thawed in the pool and we cleaned it up so it is now filled with clear, cool water... and what did the Oompas do?  They laid the pool cover on the trampoline, turned the hose on and played in the water on the trampoline.  The pool has only been used once so far this summer.  Dang, we could have saved the money we spent on the pool and just gotten the pool cover for the trampoline.  Go figure!

Yeah, reminds me of when we bought a big swing set for our then 4-year old. We spent hours and hours setting it up, and when she went out to the backyard, she headed straight for the BOX that it came in. She played in that box for weeks until it was destroyed...and THEN she started getting into the swing set.

  I am so glad that none of my 4 kids are in here reading over my shoulder or they'd be trying to make a tram-pooline too!  How creative, but funny!
