Well, no, not any kind of business like the KidZania play\nspot<\/a> in Japan that I've posted much about, but perhaps even better:\nGrandma and Grandpa's place in Ohio.<\/p>\n\n

Anthony generally spends the summer at my folks' place in rural Ohio,\nboth to bolster his English ability, and, well, to be able to see Grandma\nand Grandpa. They live in the countryside, so it's always a great<\/span>\nexperience for him.<\/p>\n\n

We arrived yesterday evening. Our luggage<\/span> arrived this morning. It\ndidn't take long before he was playing outside, power-washing some heavy\nmachinery. The toy backhoe<\/span> has been a recurrent<\/span> theme during our summers:\n\n 2006<\/a>\n·\n2007<\/a>\n·\n2008<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

Grandma and Grandpa have a new big sandpile, and so of course he wanted\nto play right away, but had to wash off the backhoe first. “Washing the\nbackhoe” quickly became “playing with the hose”, and much fun ensued.<\/p>\n\n

I got lots of nice photos, but lost them all to a corrupt<\/span> memory card until I could<\/span>\nrecover them<\/a>... most of them, at least. I was planning<\/span> on posting a fun<\/span>\nsequence, but it'll have to wait until tomorrow... jetlag... must...\nsleep....<\/p>\n\n
