Mountain Building


Day 159: When this kid plays, he plays rough. He goes galloping through the house at high speed, bouncing off walls, sliding on the linoleum, crashing into doorways, knocking over furniture. I was in the kitchen doing something I couldn't leave unattended when I heard a loud thunk. Visions of disaster swarmed through my head, but I was surprised when I rounded the corner and saw what had happened. He'd apparently leapt on the upturned end of the S-shaped tunnel, causing it to flip into the air and come down wrongside-up on his crinkly tunnel two feet away. And the little mountain goat was standing on top of it, pleased as punch with himself for having altered his environment. Life With Cat is never boring.
