Afterward, we went to the park and had a lovely lunch of pulled pork sandwiches, potato salad, coleslaw, cappuccino cookies, and brownies. (Max would have pigged out on this lunch.)

Alarmed, I determined to find out just what the heck was going on and discovered some of the children rolling down a steep hill at top speed, screaming the whole way down.
