Boys will be boys, but grown men are even more entertaining to watch. Bill is a wonderful dad and has taken on the project of planting grass behind our house. He has gotten permission from our land lord to have the field behind our house to plant grass. Planting grass though is a bit of work. First we needed to clean up the field of garbage and weeds, next we will have to level and remove rocks, then finally plant plugs of grass. Thankfully we live in a country of NO fire codes and cheap labor. Our neighbor up stairs who has a baby girl is also excited with the prospect of having a safe place for the kids to play. So Sunday morning the two men set out to clean the field of weeds and garbage in one foul swoop. And within 3 minutes we had 7 men and 10 little boys standing around watching the flames. And after 10 minutes we had a weed and garbage free field. Amazing that at any age it still excites them. And now there is talk of renting a mini bulldozer for a team mates birthday!
