"Dandelion wine. The words were summer on the tongue. The wine was summer caught and stoppered." -Ray Bradbury
We had a wonderful summer. Windham and I rode the Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad at a nearby park twice. The second time we brought Mario and also rode the carousel which coincidentally looks like the 
one from The Sting. The carousel was beautiful: hand-painted with wooden horses. The train was authentic, as well. A steam or diesel engine pulls the miniature train around the park over hills and under trees. We also participated in our Neighborhood Block Party which featured amazing burgers and hot dogs, live music, a dog parade, and door prizes. Our street was closed to car traffic for the day and we camped out on the lawn and visited with neighbors. By the end of the day we were all exhausted and ready for a nap.
