The Buckets by Greg Cravens for October 01, 2020

And I’m wearing my helmet.

Initially.

Someone explain “momentum” to these kids. It’s well within their level.

The thought process of a six year old. It’s a wondrous thing.

What could possibly go wrong? Hold my juice box and watch this.

Our playgrounds featured concrete sculptures (barrels and animal forms) and the monkey bars were embedded in cement with a thin layering of blacktop. When we started making our own skateboards our local “Suicide Hill” (OK, it wasn’t very steep at all but it) spilled onto the one major road running the length of the Rockaway Peninsula. I’ve made it to age 65.

Eddie must have blown a fuse yesterday when he was trying to power that light bulb

Mom might be about to blow a fuse, too

They are wearing helmets. However, I WOULD move the light…..

It was almost a good idea!

“almost??”

There’s indoor voices, there’s also indoor play, and that ain’t it.

Those childrens have some impressive carpentry skills. Way better ramp than I could have come up with at that age: scrap of plywood on a cinder block.

Even Evel Knievel had to start sometime…

I read comics for the mild amusement and familiarity they provide, but this was the first laugh out loud one I’ve seen in a while. Kudos.
