Simple pleasures
March 29th, 2008
There’s a dude who lives down the road and we can see generally into his yard, which we don’t spend days upon days staring into (just making that clear). But whenever we do happen to glance in that direction you can bet your bottom dollar that he’s either on the trampoline or at the very least in line with his kids to have a go.
There are a number of times where it’s late afternoon and everyone is winding down from work and sure enough he’s out there in twilight bouncing away.
I think it’s awesome.
It makes me wish that I’ve got a trampoline, one of those newish ones that isn’t all iron and static electricity and falling through the edge and catching yourself on springs. Trampoline technology appears to have advanced since I was a child. There are pads and nets and they are round.
God I wish I worked at the trampoline institute where they research such things.
