Amusing the grandkids: with our stories

Kookaburra 010

 

I tell my two how a kookaburra once dived straight into the flames of our BBQ fire and flew off with one of the chops.

I tell about the ENORMOUS zucchini we grew that was as big as a two year old kid.

I tell them how kids their age used to keep silkworms in cardboard boxes and feed them mulberry leaves.

We remember how Heiner once mistook a weed-covered pool for a hard surface, emerging as a very surprised weedy dog.

We laugh together about that, but truth to tell, they are probably just longing to get back to their screens.
