This is ode to what we affectionately call “Big Bertha”. This is a massive water slide and swimming pool we bought in May. And while it killed most of my grass, it attracted most of the neighborhood kids. It has been fascinating to observe that when kids gather, their parents gather, which has allowed me to open the door for gospel conversations.
We have had up to ten kids on this at once, and some adults have braved “Big Bertha”. I also appreciate my neighbors, because the thing sounds like mission control, and it is beginning to look like a carnival in my back yard.
Oh well, all is well that ends well. “Big Bertha” has retired for the season, and I have to purchase grass seed.
