    This afternoon, DS5 brought me a message written in hieroglyphics. He had used a stencil from a book which showed letter sounds associated with each symbol. When I decoded it, it said, "Do not read." DS laughed uproariously that he had made me read a sign that said "Do not read" ! grin

    He cracks me up smile He's very entrepreneurial!

    Last week he posted a sign in the back yard. It reads:

    "50 cents
    for
    Compost
    and
    Lemonade"

    None, so far wink

    We have a lemon tree, and he has made lemonade to sell in the past. The compost is a new addition to his product line. He found out he could make it for free in a pile in the corner of the yard and that people buy such things at the garden store. His little brain is always looking for ways to make money. He has his eye on the big Sky Rail marble run set with a working elevator smile

    As far as DS is concerned, it's great! The powers that be still need some convincing, I think...
