Me:  What are you doing in your agility class now?

Joey:  We are playing games like dodge ball.

Scot:  I thought dodge ball was not allowed in schools.

Joey:  That is why it is now called “Avoid the Orb”.

Joey:  Then we also play “Sprout Ball” and that is way more dangerous because it is everyone trying to get everyone.

Scot:  I love the way teachers get around these limitations. Next they will outlaw running because you can get hurt.

Joey:  The sky is all pink. That is really cool looking.

Scot:  That is from the sun setting.

Joey:  Oh now look, the sky is not as pink, but now the ground looks pink.

Katie:  The ground at the Garden of the Gods always looks pinkish.

Joey:  If I could go to the Garden of the Gods.

Me:  You have been to the Garden of the Gods two times.

Joey:  If I could spend an hour there.

Me:  You have spent several hours there two different times.

Joey:  Well, if I could do whatever I wanted, I would walk through all of the plants just to annoy people.

Me:  What plants?

Scot:  It is a bunch of rocks and you can walk all over them and climb them.

Me:  I have pictures of you on those rocks.  I have pictures of all of us on those rocks. Remember the picture of you that looks like you are holding up a huge rock.

Joey:  Yes but those are red and not pink.

While driving to the University of Portland:

Joey: Did you just see that house? It was orange with red trim.

Me:  I did not see it, but that sounds weird.

Joey: It was and I bet it attracts a lot of bugs.

Me:  What?

Joey: Bugs like bright colors, that is why flowers are so bright.
