THE RAINS

The rain was bonkers all day, so we stayed indoors as much as possible. Our first stop was an arcade named QuarterWorld, where I was planning to meet two local kids named Fern and Max. But the arcade was too loud for my taste, so I elected to sit and draw instead. (It’s a good thing I always remind Mommy to bring my paper and pens!)

Then we had lunch next door at Apizza Scholls – and they had arcade games, too! (But it was much quieter, so I liked it.) I was a total natural at Pole Position.

Finally, I kept watch while Chris and Daddy did some music shopping at Exiled Records.

Before we headed home, though, we found this treasure! A long, long, time ago…horses were tethered to these little metal rings on the sides of the street. These days, you can sometimes find a tiny toy horse attached instead. We found one of their dinosaur friends!
