It was really hot here last weekend, and in the interest of keeping cool AND busily occupied, I talked Marty into letting us buy a slip n' slide.  I remember having one as kids, sliding along the plastic runway all slicked up by a sprinkler in the shape of a banana.  Designwise they've improved, but they're still just the same old fun.


We've used it almost every day since Sunday, both of the kids love it, and so far we have no injuries to report.


Martin likes to run up and down the hose side of the slide on the water tube, disrupting the regular flow of water with intermittent spurts.  It looks just like the fountains at Bellagio.  If the Bellagio were only $8.00 and setup in our backyard.
