A few years ago the kids took some Polly Pockets on a hike. We went by a man (or perhaps woman) made waterfall. I told the kids the waterfall was like Niagra Falls to the Polly Pockets. The PPs promptly went over the falls and were never seen again. Alas.

ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU - I'm thinking I need to do my first diorama in decades!
ReplyDeleteHa! I miss the nineties, too, although I'm older than you so I'm sure my experience of it was different. I still laugh when I think of the Y2K insanity.
ReplyDeleteI miss the nineties so much. Everything was better then.
