Scrape

I took Jack to the fountain thing over by the Lake Jackson Civic Center this afternoon. He actually played in the water without any hesitation. Usually when we go, he's a chicken. He fell today and scraped his elbow and knee. I told him not to run about a hundred times but he didn't listen.

Do you mean one of those things that randomly shoots jets water from holes in the ground, or did he just dive into a fountain?

Jenny Hintze said...

Yeah, Maury. I let him just dive into a fountain.

Head first.

I told him to grab all the quarters.

Maury said...

No, seriously. I didn't know we had one of those water squirt things in town — or are you talking about some other kind of fountain/water thing? I've never seen jets of water shooting out the ground anywhere.

Jets shooting out of the ground....over behind the Civic Center. You should go try it. It's pretty cool. I've posted some other pictures of him at the fountain at my flickr thing. There's a link somewhere.

Maury said...

Ahh, sweet.

What you need to do is plug-up about 2/3 of the holes, then you'll get a few really STRONG and TALL jets.

THAT would rule.

So does this thing run all the bloody time?

Jim Looby said...

Shoot, plug all but ONE. That would be gi-normous.

Jenny Hintze said...

Not all the bloody time. I don't think they run it at night.

Jim Looby said...

That could offer some seriously hilarious potential if the did.

Some dude walking to his car -- suddenly...
