Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I don't like bugs. You'd be surprised how many different kinds of bug are killed by Spic & Span spray I get at Dollar Tree- even silverfish (really hate them)

I like bugs - except for those that want to parasitize you. There's a 'pet' spider in one of my tomato plants that I have been observing all summer. I'm a little bit tired so I'm going to take a nap here on my lily pad. Please don't make waves.

Ignore the warm sprinkle.

From Sunday:

 

[Pyxis]

New York City was fun! It was just a quick visit, down on Saturday and back yesterday. I went to American Museum of Natural History for three hours, and then they closed at 6 and I missed a bunch of it, so I'll have to go back. I did see their special exhibition on T. rex, which was very cool. Then I had to sprint through the rest of the dinosaurs because the museum was closing.

Then after we had to leave, we walked through central park, grabbed some dinner, rode the train back out to Newark (where my aunt lives) and called it a night. I found the Balto statue:

Sunday was Comic-Con, so we got up, got on the train and headed over. And it was extremely packed. Lesson learned, next time I'm going on a weekday. No really, it was SO packed, you couldn't even really stop to look at anything. So I didn't get a lot of pictures. And they were also sold out of the con exclusive plushie I wanted to get. But my Dad did get some con exclusive Funko Pops.

After spending a couple hours there, most of which was just spent fighting with the crowd to get anywhere, we went and ate lunch at a diner and then it was time to head home.

Next time I'll go down for longer and do some more stuff. My aunt works in the Empire State building, so she can take me to the top for free. That'll be fun.

Very Cool! Which Pops did he get?

I forgot that Balto, the famous Alaskan, was there.
