Chase’s big adventure for Wednesday was his trip to the Magic House in the evening. As part of the library’s Summer Reading Program, Chase received three free tickets to the Magic House so Mama, Chase and Nanaw went in the evening while Daddy golfed. In the morning, Chase and Nanaw went for a walk, and Chase kept tossing his water cup on the ground – he seemed to think that was great fun. He did a lot of running around Nanaw’s house and did his usual thing of grabbing her hairbrush. At the Magic House, Chase had what seemed to be an amazingly wonderful time. He ran around for an hour and a half, going from exhibit to exhibit. He went to the construction area and used a broom and a shovel and put PVC pipes together. He played in the water park twice, splashing water everywhere and playing with one of the floating ducks. He went in tunnels and caves and played various musical instruments. He rolled around in a tub of plastic balls, rang some doorbells, climbed up on a stage, wrote on a blackboard with chalk, went down some slides, climbed into a wooden canoe and played with a series of gears on a wall. He was tireless and fearless, and the evening was a great success.
