A WALK IN THE PARK, RIGHT!?!?!?!?!

Today, Dad & I took our usual two-mile walk down the street.  On our way back, a lady was starting to throw away a perfectly good watermelon.  We haven't had one this year because I refuse to pay $4 for a tiny watermelon.  But, oh I wanted one!  Dad said, "No, thank you."  I said, "Why are you throwing it out?"  It look perfectly good.  She said they were leaving for Tennessee and it would rot by the time they got back.  I wanted it.  I said, "Yes, we'll take it (turned to Tim and said), YOU can carry it home."  We laughed, took the watermelon, thanked the lady and started walking.  Then I realized that we weren't half way home yet.  Tim carried the watermelon about a mile.  He switched back and forth from each shoulder, then he carried it in his hands.  I kept offering to carry it, but he refused.  It was a man thing to take up the challenge to get it all the way back home.  I offered to hide it under a tree, walk home and take the car back to pick it up.  But, the challenge was on!

One tired watermelon carrier...

Thank you for carrying it all the way home - I will enjoy this treat thoroughly!

What do you do with a banana that is rotting minute by minute?  The answer...

Only a boy...!
