August came in like a lion

...a lion in a very bad mood!
Some places in Philly got record amounts of rainfall in one hour's time.
And that's about all it took (after a long hard rain the night before)... for THIS to happen...

not just in one spot... but in two:

which made packing for vacation really *challenging*, as we had to load the car by stepping over this:


Once we returned, however, the boys got straight to work "fixing" the mess...


and they've been on the job ever since...


it's actually become our new go-to playground, and while it's making a royal mess of our basement, it's like a boy heaven in our own yard. . .

this guy is into all things "snakes, snails and puppy dog tails"... literally.
C asked him recently why he likes tails so much.
he said, "because they're SO waggy!"

and there you have it.

what's not to love?
