The Escape Plan

I have been asked by Kim and Jason to take part in their Adultitis Escape Plan, a 40-day plan to become more childlike (not childish)
and to reduce stress and prevent dullness, depression and [insert
another word beginning with 'd' here]. Of course I’m gonna do it.

Dreary-ness, that begins with ‘D’.


The twenty-third task: Take a picture of the most childlike spot in town.

Sometimes the obvious response to a task is the best, so Jen and Mat accompanied me to Gloria Park, which happens to be about two minutes walk from our house. Or twenty minutes if Mat walks too.

Spinner == good
This is me, giving my thoughts on that bit of equipment to my right (your left). It is the funnest thing at the park, being a stick that swivels. You jump on it and give it a spin, then hold on. Tight. Falling off is easier than it looks. Lean in closer to speed it up and increase the centrifugal force on your body greatly. Lean back to slacken the pace.

The kiddy jail - not much of a punishment.
This place is basically a jail for kids. Only they actually want to be there. So maybe it is actually a jail for adults who are watching their kids…
Cute kid.
Matty being just as cute as can be.
Mat is small
I used to be this tall too.
The beautiful people.
The swings. Not much else to say.

That stick! I was trying to show my daughter how to use it the other day and fell off myself! Definitely easier to fall off than it looks!

It’s great fun though.
Espescially the ‘try-not-to-throw-up-afterwards’ game that you get to play, well… afterwards.
