Kids love card games whether it's a two player game or a game the entire family can play together. This page lists the top 7 card games for children, including brief instructions on how to play. Most of the games have dedicated pages, which we've linked – in case you want more information. 1. Crazy Eights Crazy eights was perhaps my absolute favourite game as a kid and my own children love it just the same. The object of the game is to play all of the cards in your hand first. To begin, the dealer will deal each player … More
How to Play SnapSnap was one of my favourite games growing up. It's fun, it's fast and very easy to teach small children.

To start a game of snap, you will need to deal out the entire deck face down to the players in the game. You cannot look at your cards in this game.

Horse Racing Board Game with CardsWhile visiting some family for the holidays we stumbled on this horse racing game you can play with a deck of cards and a wooden board. I do know Michaud Toys Inc makes the game (this was the wooden board we were using) and costs approximately $75. It really is a great product and the wood work was very detailed. All of the numbers were burnt into the wood. (image included courtesy of Michaud Toys). The edging is made out of Ash, while the center part of the board is made out of Birch. They also make a fantastic Rummoli … More
The Illuminati Card GameThis article was contributed by Randy Ray. The Illuminati card game is a conspiracy theory themed card game designed by Steve Jackson and published by Steve Jackson Games, a game company based in Austin, Texas. Illuminati uses a proprietary deck of cards; it cannot be played with a standard deck of cards. The game was designed in 1981 and published in 1982, so it's one of the older proprietary card games on the market. Between 2 and 8 players can play Illuminati, but the game runs best with 4 or 5 players. Theoretically, children from ages 8 and up can … More
The Dwarf King Card GameThis article was contributed by Randy Ray. The Dwarf King is a fantasy-themed, trick-taking card game designed by Bruno Faidutti and published by Iello, a French game company. The game has similarities to Bardu, a trick-taking game played with a regular deck of cards. Both The Dwarf King and Bardu feature multiple rounds with different goals (or "contracts," as card-playing enthusiasts call them.) And Bardu can be translated from the French as "the bearded one." A trick-taking game is a game where each player plays a single card, and the person who played the highest card of that suit "takes … More
How to Play SpoonsSpoons is a fun family card game and an easy game to teach children. The object of this game is to collect four of the same rank and grab a spoon before your opponents. You will need at least three players, although 5 – 7 is better, and a standard deck of 52 playing cards. As the name suggests, the game requires spoons. The number of spoons is equal to the number of players playing, less one. So for a seven player game, you need six spoons. Place the spoons in the middle of the table, so that each player … More

Math Card GamesLet's face it – math is hard for some kids and flash cards aren't as fun as the packaging makes it out to be. It makes it even more difficult to teach your child addition and subtraction when your child is on an IEP (individual education plan) combined with ADHD. On my quest to reduce the tension that math homework brings to my house, I came across some instructions which combined the card game War with math facts. This made teaching the basic addition and subtraction facts much easier and a lot more fun. Below are a few different math … More

Bloodhound SuperSonic Car begins construction: 1,000mph on Intel Atom processors (video)
Source: http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/18/bloodhound-supersonic-car-begins-construction-1-000mph-on-intel/
We saw the mockup back in July and, soon, we'll be seeing the real thing. Construction of the Bloodhound SSC is underway, with a planned top speed of over 1,000mph courtesy of a jet engine borrowed from a Typhoon jet fighter sitting in the back -- and a trio of Intel Atom processors in the cockpit that will run a number of onboard diagnostics and telemetry systems. Sure, they won't be adding to the overall thrust of the thing but neither will they be putting much of a drain on the electrical system. If all goes according to plan the car will be completed by the end of this year and will start speed runs by the beginning of 2012. Maybe by then Intel will have something a little quicker to slap in there.Bloodhound SuperSonic Car begins construction: 1,000mph on Intel Atom processors (video) originally appeared on Engadget on Tue, 18 Jan 2011 11:01:00 EDT.

Engineer in the Making: Three-year-old Austen Verdugo checks out the G-gauge wonders at the Train Place Deli.
On the Food Train
A railroad runs through it at the new location of the Train Place Deli
By Janet Blaser
WHAT DO TRAINS and sandwiches have in common? Umm, I don't know, but you can try and figure it out yourself at the new location of the Train Place Deli. Owner Dan Misko made the decision to move from Scotts Valley because he needed more space--for parking, for seating and, of course, for the trains. Many of his regular customers were from here anyway, and they're thrilled, he says, to have the deli so close to home.
Obviously, Misko's made quite a name for himself, because he's the only restaurateur around who has 1,000 feet of train track set up in his dining room. But those who may have come at first just to check out the G-gauge railroad layout have returned for the big, homemade sandwiches, fresh soups and home-baked cookies. With more than a dozen varieties of subs to choose from, made on Aldo's Bakery breads that are delivered fresh every morning (rye, honey wheat and sourdough), and served with a side of potato or pasta salad, the Train Place gives maximum satisfaction for the buck. Sandwich selections include hot pastrami, oven-roasted turkey or Cajun turkey, real Italian meatball and a chili-dog sub made with Misko's famous no-bean chili. Prices are reasonable, too--$4.95-$5.25 for a 6-inch sub, and $8.95 for the 12-inch. There's a kid's menu, too.
Misko's love affair with trains started when he got his first set at age 6. As a teenager growing up in Southern California, he used to hop trains on the weekend and hope he'd get back home before his parents found out he was gone. Misko's first deli, Dan's, is still operating in Woodland Hills, but the trains weren't involved until he opened the Train Place in Scotts Valley about five years ago. "I've always loved trains, and everybody loves good food," Misko says with a shrug. "So I just put them together." At any given time, there are up to seven trains moving on the track that winds across the front and down one side of the bright, spacious dining room. The Train Place Deli, located at 1820 41st Ave., Capitola, next to Miyako Sushi, is open from 11am to 9pm, Monday through Saturday. In a hurry? Check the menu on the website (www.thetrainplace.com), call in your order (475.0150).
Musical Loaf
Rising to new heights, Joe Ortiz's Bread! The Musical moves to the Kuumbwa Jazz Center for two Sunday performances. If you missed the premieres at Gayle's Bakery, here's your chance to catch this fun, inspiring and whimsical play, described as an exploration of "food, faith and fidelity."
Starring local actors Burr Nissen (as the mad baker--a result of his experiments with rye bread) and Alice Hughes (as his charming and determined wife), this tasty morsel of jazz theater will have audiences laughing--at the story line, the song lyrics (all written by Joe) and the characters. Tickets for both the Oct. 1 and Oct. 8 shows are $12 in advance, $14 at the door of Kuumbwa, on Cedar Street in downtown Santa Cruz. You can purchase them at Gayle's Bakery (504 Bay Ave., Capitola) or call 462.1200 for more info. And speaking of Gayle's, it is the place for holiday specialties. Traditional Rosh Hashana breads like raisin or plain challah, honey cake and rugaleh, and Yom Kippur fare, including stuffed cabbage, roast chicken and mushroom barley soup, can all be ordered ahead of time and picked up to take home.
For a work much older than Joe's, try a dose of Chaucer at the Annual Harvest Celebration at Bargetto Winery. The festivities feature a performance by the Geoffrey Chaucer Company of My Five Husbands from The Canterbury Tales. The day also includes, of course, wine tasting and art displays. The event takes place Sunday (Sept. 24) at Bargetto's, 3535 N. Main St., Soquel. Tickets are $25 and $10. Call 475.2258 for details.

Filipino glo-fi nerd No Rome has shaped up to become one of the most promising discoveries of the Sound-cloud era. Even in his early incarnation as CHRK, he's been doing intriguingly hazy dance-pop demos that spill watercolor palette to the ears.
Recently, he uploaded a transfixing bedroom cover of Michael Jackson's "Rock With You"—yes, that big pop song brimming with evocative moments only MJ can pull off. It turns out No Rome's version have employed interesting details that somehow highlight the tight pop structure and brevity of the original, adding a bit of mid-80s light funk rhythms and laid-back synths to the brim and injecting his own chilled down persona to make it sound, absolutely his. Check out his take and download it here.

Emmys 2013: TV Academy Guru Breaks Down the New Rules
Senior vp awards John Leverence tells THR about backtracking on the miniseries and movies consolidation and which stunt performers are eligible this year.
This story first appeared in the June 7 issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine
In his post as the Television Academy of Arts & Sciences' senior vp awards, John Leverence frequently is called upon to explain to Emmy voters -- and the media -- an ever-evolving roster of changes and amendments. With voting for the 2013 Emmy nominations getting under way in June, Leverence, 67, clarifies a few of this year's more substantial tweaks.
The Hollywood Reporter: On April 18, the Academy reversed its decision to consolidate the miniseries/movies lead and supporting acting categories. Why the change?
John Leverence: The board of governors looked at the entries they received in 2012 compared with this year and didn't see a reduction in total number, which was our entire intent with the change. It was going to be like having 10 pounds of coffee in a 5-pound sack! So the board decided the consolidation wasn't keeping in the spirit of the competition.
PHOTOS: THR Emmy Roundtable: Behind-the-Scenes Photos of TV's Hottest Drama Actresses
THR: One rule that still is in effect this year is that writers on animated series can choose to submit their work for consideration in the comedy writing category. What was the genesis of this change?
Leverence: This basically started way back when The Simpsons was first eligible in 1990 and [executive producer] James L. Brooks said to us, "We really feel that the fact that it's an 'animation' production is irrelevant to the fact that we're writing a three-camera sitcom, and our colleagues in the multicam business are being submitted for comedy series." So after a long discussion over numerous years, it came down to this: If a writer of an episode for The Simpsons wanted to detach himself or herself from the team in animated programming and migrate into the competition for writing on a comedy series as his or her submission, then that's OK.
THR: Stuntmen and stuntwomen have publicly fought to get their craft more respect within the race, and this year there are two stunt categories -- one for drama and another for comedy. Does this mean that, say, Ty Burrell's stunt double who falls down the stairs on Modern Family could have a shot at a nom?
Leverence: Yes, exactly. Comedy stunt performers consistently and wisely pointed out that most of the drama series stunts are filmed remotely or outside, and most of the comedy series stunts are done inside studio soundstages. You can't blow up a car in the studio or do a crazy car chase, so many of the comedy people ended up not submitting because it was too much of an apples-and-oranges situation. Because how could slipping on a banana compete with a crazy car chase through the streets of New York City?
THR: So if the logic holds, there could be a stunt category added for, say, the late-night variety shows if those performers lobbied hard enough?
Leverence: (Laughs.) I'm not expecting a lot of interest for variety stunts right now, but anything could happen in the future.

Called in to 3HL in their final 10 minutes to comment on the discussion of what order to view the Star Wars films in. They seemed to like my recommendation of watching Episodes 4, 5, 1, 2, 3 then 6.
No, actually... here's the reasoning: Episodes 1-3, to me, seem to be more about the journey of Anakin becoming Darth Vader... so, it is almost an origin trilogy. So... Episodes 4 & 5 to start the series well since it introduces the characters well - also helps 5 is one of the best of the series. Episode 5 gives the big "reveal" about Vader being Luke's father. So then, we begin the first three to learn the beginnings of Darth - especially since the BIG REVEAL has happened. After Episode 3, jump back to 6 so the series can end on a high note with the Rebels being victorious. The only spoiler will be the revelation that Leia is Luke's sister/Vader's daughter. Also, the time between Episode 5 & 6 feels longer - giving Luke "proper" time to become a Knight and so on. Pretty cool to see Yoda as an old man and then seeing him as a master swordsman in his "youth".
So 3HL wasn't talking about jack chit today. Now I don't feel bad for not tuning in. For the Record You should watch the original Lord of the Rings trilogy before watching The Hobbit trilogy.
I'm gonna go ahead and piss some people off... I don't like Star Wars. I loved them growing up. But a few years ago I went back and watched some of them and I couldn't help but think "wow... this sucks." Sorry :(
Also, since it is a far superior film series anyway. MARVEL FILMS : In their correct order Captain America: First Avenger Iron Man The Incredible Hulk Iron Man 2 Thor The Avengers Iron Man 3 Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D - Ongoing Thor: The Dark World Guardians of the Galaxy - 2014 Captain America: The Winter Soldier - 2014 Avengers: Age of Ultron - 2015 Ant Man - 2015 Dr. Strange - ??? Black Panther - ??? Iron Man 4 - ??? Thor/Loki 3 - ??? Captain America Tres - ??? Heros for Hire - ??? Avengers: Thanos and Chit - ??? Runaways - ??? InHumans - ??? SO FREAKING AWESOME!!!
Correct Order for the X-Men films IMO First Class X-Men X2 ? ? The Wolverine Days of Future Past - 2014
I thought we were nerding out in this thread. Sorry, I didn't know sexual conquests were going to be discussed.

CORAL GABLES, Fla. - Less than 12 hours after Miami's 27-point win over No. 1 Duke, Operation Sellout 2.0 was successful as the Hurricanes' matchup Sunday against in-state rival Florida State is sold out.
Sunday will be just the third time that the BankUnited Center will have a capacity crowd of 7,972 under its current configuration. The first two occasions came against Duke (Feb. 13, 2011 and Jan. 23, 2013).
Miami, who is 14-3 overall and 5-0 in the ACC, is 8-0 at home this season and is undefeated in 2013. Sunday's game will tip at 6 p.m. and be televised on ESPNU.
Fans with a purchased ticket are encouraged to arrive to the BankUnited Center early on Sunday evening. Doors will open at 5 p.m. and as usual, traffic is expected to be heavy for those utilizing US-1 to access the arena.
Students can begin lining up at noon on Sunday in hopes of being one of 1,300 students with complimentary admission to the game. Students attending the women's basketball game vs. North Carolina will receive priority seating. Students are advised to stay tuned to more information via email.
All of the student ticketing information is available on the Men's Basketball home page. UM expects to have more than 1,300 students in the building for just the eighth time in BankUnited Center history.
Prior to the 2006-07 season, the capacity in the BankUnited Center was 7,000 and UM reached the sellout mark on eight occasions under that configuration.

David Cameron's communications director Andy Coulson will come under renewed pressure this week amid claims by a committee of MPs that they had the "wool pulled over our eyes" over the News of the World phone-tapping scandal.
Mr Coulson will be the key witness at an emergency hearing of the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee on Tuesday, alongside the Sun editor Rebekah Brooks (née Wade) and former News of the World managing editor Stuart Kuttner.
The Tory spin-doctor, who resigned as the paper's editor two years ago over the affair, will be asked to put on the record a categorical denial that he knew nothing of the illegal activities of journalists on his former paper.
The committee will also focus on whether Mr Coulson can remain as one of Mr Cameron's closest aides in Downing Street, because the phone-tapping scandal happened on his watch. Until last week, Mr Coulson had refused publicly to deny knowledge of the activities of the then royal editor of the paper, Clive Goodman, and private investigator Glenn Mulcaire.
While there is no suggestion Mr Coulson has misled MPs or done anything wrong, some Tories are concerned that the continuing affair could be damaging to the Conservatives and their relationship with the Royal Family, which was the target of major hacking activity by Goodman.
Members of the select committee are also angry that evidence given to them during their investigation into the affair two years ago by other News of the World executives appeared to stop short of the full story.
Les Hinton, at the time News International chairman, told the committee in 2007 that Goodman had been acting alone. Yet an investigation by The Guardian this month claimed the practice was widespread. News of the World chief reporter Neville Thurlbeck, who will also be called by the committee, is alleged to have been involved in illegal activity. One committee source said yesterday: "There are some members who believe that the wool was pulled over their eyes when they first investigated this in 2007."
Mr Cameron and his inner circle have so far stood by Mr Coulson. But there were new questions last night over whether Mr Cameron and George Osborne, who was involved in Mr Coulson's recruitment, properly checked whether the former editor knew of the scandal.
In an interview with The Independent on Sunday, Mr Osborne refused to repeat Mr Coulson's denial. And in remarks which could trigger speculation that the Tory leadership could pull support from Mr Coulson if his story evaporates, Mr Osborne referred to his colleague in the past tense. Asked whether Mr Coulson had denied to him at the time any knowledge of phone-tapping, Mr Osborne said: "I'm not going to go into my private conversations with Andy Coulson, but I will say this – I think he's been an absolutely excellent communications director for the Conservative Party. I think he's conducted himself in that job in an entirely proper and correct way."
Asked if he was concerned that Mr Coulson did not know what was going on under his watch, Mr Osborne said: "The police have thoroughly investigated this. I thought it was significant that on the day The Guardian made its allegations that the police came out and said this had been thoroughly investigated and that there was no new evidence, as far as they were concerned, that was worth investigating. I think that speaks for itself."
One News International insider said Mr Coulson was still a candidate to succeed Ms Brooks as editor of The Sun in September. The fresh revelations of phone-tapping had damaged his chances slightly, but the source added: "Andy is still the golden boy. If things didn't work out with Cameron, he could have the job if he wanted."

How to change the return of a textbox from TRUE/FALSE to YES/NO?
I have a long colum full of textboxes in excel. When the boc is checked it
returns true, and false for unchecked. I would like to change this so that it returns Yes for checked and No for unchecked. How can I make this happen |

You mean Checkboxes?
You can use a helper cell: =if(a1=true,"Yes","No") Then hide that linkedcell (if you want). Gldenboy2 wrote: > > I have a long colum full of textboxes in excel.

How can I make this happen -- Dave Peterson |
Good evening Gldenboy2 As far as I know you can't - not directly anyway - as the checkbox is usually a boolean value, (unless you specify it as a triple state, in which case it can have a null value) which means it's value is true or false, but 1 and 0 will be accepted through programming, but not Yes and No. If it's that important to you, a workaround is to use the cell linked to the control as a "helper" cell and keep it hidden (in this example, A1). In B1 put this formula: =IF(A1=FALSE,"No","Yes") This will toggle between yes and no as the control is de/selected.

More honest about history? Iraqi novelist Ali Bader writes about the Farhud massacre of the Jews
For decades, Arab Jews went missing from Arabic films and novels. This loud absence followed the Jewish exodus from Cairo, Damascus and other cities around the region. Before the second world war, Jews had seemed an eternal part of the Arab cultural fabric. In the early 20th century, Baghdad's Jews had made up one-third of the city's population, and were prominent in the arts, commerce and city administration.
Things changed drastically in June 1941, when the riotous Farhud pogrom killed around 180 of Baghdad's Jews and wounded closer to 1,000. Over the next decades, as the city's Jewish residents emigrated or were driven out, they also disappeared from Iraqi narratives. But when acclaimed Iraqi novelist Ali Bader was searching for the origins of contemporary violence in Baghdad in his 2008 novel The Tobacco Keeper, he circled back to the Farhud massacres. From there, he depicted the city's vibrant early-20th-century Jewish population.
Bader, who also wrote about the city's Jewish population in his influential Papa Sartre, isn't alone. Papa Sartre, published in 2001, was followed by more than 20 other novels and novellas that foreground Arabic-speaking Jews.
From the 1950s through the 1990s, if Arab Jewish characters appeared in Arabic novels, they were largely of two types. Either they'd been crafted by Arab Jews living in Israel, such as Sami Michael, or the characters reflected the situation of Israel and Palestine. The war and occupation "kidnapped … an important part of the Arab world history," according to scholar Najat Abdulhaq. "And froze it."
These novels have been coming from across the region. "And I don't think that the writers had an agreement among each other – that they had a workshop and then decided, 'Come on, we're going to write novels about it!'" Abdulhaq said at a talk this summer.
Most of the novels are set in the middle of the last century and are based on true stories. "Lastness" is a central trope. A cynic might say that it's now possible to write about Arab Jews because their communities are gone.
But Bader, who was perhaps the first of this new wave, says he was intentionally writing against official regime history. In 2001, Bader said in an email: "Political discourse in Iraq was designed to legitimize the [Ba'athist] revolution, by denigrating systematically the previous eras." This included the denigration of Jews and other minorities. "All my novels try to invalidate the official version of the history," Bader said.
Other authors have had other motivations. Egyptian novelist Kamal Ruhayyim, who grew up in Giza and well-to-do Maadi, worked as a police officer in Cairo and Paris. When he began to write novels, he turned not to crime scenes, but to memories of his Jewish neighbours. According to his son Ahmed, Ruhayyim wanted Egyptians to remember this important part of their history. He also wanted them to understand the difference between Jewish communities and Israeli policies.

Not much to say, except for the fact that I'm a big HP fan, but that's obvious. I'm am currently working on getting my stories here. I have an account I havn't touched for a while on fanfiction dot net under this same name, because that site is blocked from my computer.
I'm having a little trouble with getting stories uploaded properly, but I'm sure I'll figure it out sooner or later...
If anyone is having post-Harry Potter stress disorder (phpsd) over not having a book to read, I suggest Twilight, by Stephine Meyer. The thrid one in her series just came out, and Twilight is the first one.
My new favorite show is Flight of the Conchords on HBO. If that's what you're into
I hate you I hate you I hate you! Poor Draco, because she's probably gonna leave him, poor Hermionie for bing confused, poor me for being left with this cliff hanger, and poor you having to read my temper tantrum.
No! Now she's not going to have either of them! And I liked Draco... even if I knew it wouldn't last...
cute, i liked it
Harry is seventeen years old, and left unprotected now that Petunia is in Azkaban. The war has really begun, and The order will do whatever it takes to get as many magical races on their side that they can. Follow Harry through his last year at Hogwarts as he meets the new DADA Teacher, the new Quidditch Captain, Goes on a mission for The Order, and much, much more that I won't tell you about, so that while your reading the story you can fall off your chairs in shock. Let's just say this fic is packed with action, and you don't wanna miss it! PLEASE READ AND REVEIW!!!!!
cute, i liked it, especially the "sappy drama movie" part.
i loved it, it was really sweet
Lily Evans and James Potter share absolutely nothing in common, not even their feelings for each other. Lily, perceived as a model student, detests the handsome, popular, Quidditch star James, who she thinks to be something of a git. James, on the contrary, has been infatuated with Lily for years, and has let her and the whole school know it.
As time progresses into Voldemorts reign of terror, the two have to learn to trust, tolerate, and love each other.
Please note, this story is incomplete, and will likely remain so for a long time. I apologize!
Wow, I can't wait to read more. Keep posting... plese.
that was [i/] really[i] good.
I really liked it. Good job. Five Gold Stars (out of five)
have you read Midnight Predetor by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes?
yay! everyone is happy! for the moment...
I really loved your story, and now I can't wait for the next/alternative part, not because I don't like this ending, but because I like this story and your writing.
**sniff sniff** I think I liked it alot, because I do get tired of all stories ending in happy endings, but I'm gonna read the other ending too...

Sirius Sirius blinks. He cranes his neck to look behind him."Sirius "
A shiver runs up his spine as if a cold, dead finger is stroking it
"Whos there?! he calls out to the voice, spinning clockwise to try and catch a glimpse of whatever it is.
Sirius Black
Author's Response: What what? O.o If you\'re confused about the plot, it\'s pretty much just a story about what happens to Sirius behind the veil.
Good, very good, I liked it alot, and I dunno if I ever notived the falling stars thing.
oh no oh no oh no!
only your story has been able to keep me completly wondering what's going to happen next, while most other storys don't have that cliff-hanger at the end of just about every chapter.
TONKS! What's wrong with Tonks?! I hope you update soon...!
OH MERLIN OH MERLIN OH MERLIN OH MERLIN OH MERLIN!!!!! I won't bash you on the head, but please update quickly! (or I may have to take a frying pan to your head... :-) Poor Remus... *tear*...
wait, what?! REMUS!

I actually got out today and it was good for me, I think. C & I and the dogs hiked up to the lookout on Spivey Mountain, which was truly awesome and looked like this. It felt good and the dogs were overjoyed: it's been way too long since we've done any hiking worthy of the name, because that dawn trek by the river every morning doesn't really count, no matter how many ghostly Japanese scroll herons are standing in the water. Lately in the morning I'm too busy worrying about my life and stuff to even notice anything anyway; I'm not sure I'd believe I'd even been to the river if it wasn't for the eye opening smell of wet Django in the car on the way back. There's something about soaking wet spaniels that makes the car windows fog over immediately, too.
Anyway, C & I hiked and then I came back and drove over to South Asheville and picked up the QOB and took her for a long scenic drive up the parkway to Craggy Gardens. I had planned to go all the way up to Mt. Mitchell but alas, the parkway's still closed up there. Oh well. She didn't get out of the car much but we enjoyed it and I took some pictures like this one of mountains starting to turn all orange and red and clouds looking like some kind of funky toys in the sky. It was totally gorgeous up there and I told, yet again, my story of Wilbur the pig at the Craggy Gardens picnic area.
That was the day I came down the trail with Theo and looked across the parking lot and thought to myself my GOD, that is the ugliest dog I have ever seen. Then I looked a little more closely and I thought my GOD, that's a baby rhinoceros! They have a baby rhinoceros at Craggy Gardens! Then I looked more closely yet and realized that it was not, alas, a rhinoceros but in fact a pig. On a leash. A gigantic, 400 or so pound pig on a leash in the parking lot. Well. So, naturally, I put Theo in the car before he saw the pig and went literally barking mad and sauntered over there and struck up a conversation with the very nice couple who were walking this pig. His name, I learned, was Wilbur and he loved to go for walks, but he always tried to root around in the dirt on the trail, which made him dirty, which in turn meant he had to have a bath before he went back in the living room.
Well, yes, of course. I too bathe my GIANT PIG before I let him into the living room.
So every time I go to the Craggy Gardens picnic area, I think of Wilbur and smile. And the QOB thought this story was completely hilarious and then told me that my Great Aunt Claire actually had a pet pygmy pig herself. This was surprising, since Great Aunt Claire was about the single most elegant woman on the face of the planet in a time of elegance. A pomeranian, yes. A pig? Huh. The things you learn on expeditions to see the fall colors.

Well, they really should bathe the pig before they put lipstick on him (her?)
Do you walk the dogs in the morning even on weekends, or do you wait till afternoon? I took my retriever to beaver lake last week, I liked it more than carrier park or the dog park. - 12:09 PM
