Billy Goat Gruff

They were playing cars.  Driving on a "road" when all of a sudden, "Carter the Driver" turned into "Carter the Toll Collecter."  He slapped his hand down in front of their line of cars. 

 "Five Cents," he demanded. 
 "McQueen.  Go".  replied Addison. 
"Five Cents," was his reply. 
"Kachow.  Go," continued his plea.
  "Do you have Five Cents?"
"No."
"Well then you can't go."

What's a mom to do? The only thing you would have done. 
"Addison," I whispered and motioned him to my side of the table. 
"Here you go,"  and handed him the imaginary money.

"Oh, WOW!" and he promplty drove his car back to the toll gate.

Carter The Tollman looked at Addison's approaching car.  He looked back at me.  He looked back at the car.

"7 Cents."

Looks like the toll roads here are teaching him well. :) Also looks like the CO trip was a blast (car and all). Seeing your Garden of the Gods pics made me all nostalgic and stuff. No doubt you passed my old stomping grounds of Castle Rock on the way. Glad you had such a great time!
