Anyway, that left me hanging out with the Boy. We did a bit of shopping in town, then went up to Indian Ladder Farms hoping to pick raspberries, though apparently they're a bit thin at the moment so we need to come back in a couple of weeks. Still, we bought a few things from the farm shop and admired some of the livestock, so it didn't feel like a wasted journey.
This afternoon the Boy got busy on his own eco-craft project - turning a load of old packing boxes into WALL-E and WALL-E's 'house'. When I say he got busy, what I really mean is I was roped into wielding the scissors and tape while the Boy project-managed.
The boxes had most recently been employed as an 'eco-fridge', though we are now proud to introduce our rather more functional refrigerator. It even dispenses ice and water as designed, thanks to the extraordinary efforts of a handy-Man.
the rockfish kids haven't made masks from old milk bottles, but they have used them to make mouse rockets (influenced by Wallace obviously)
ReplyDeleteFor real mice...? Maybe you shouldn't answer that.
