   I thought this was going to be about remembering when the Great Columbian was in diapers and could fit these kinds of swings. Also semi-heartbreaking for the Great’s mother…

    That is a fine photo! I prefer to think of it as lunchtime, when the kiddies take a break and go home and then nap.

    this makes me quite jealous, actually. At all the parks near me there’s ALWAYS a need to queue up and wait…..patiently….so that my daughter can swing in one of those.
