A Visit from the Bones















Things have been pretty boring here in D-town lately. So, we decided to invite a friend over. Mr. Bones was a bit shy coming out of the box. And he didn't really want to Skype with Aaron and Kim. But once we gave him some dinner, he livened up and was chatting away on the cell phone and computer at the same time. He called up some of his family to tell them to stop by and soon we were entertaining Uncle Bub and Aunt Elsie. Uncle Tex dropped by to play a few tunes on the guitar and Jeff enjoyed chatting with The Captain. Things were going well until we accidently popped in on the Captain in the bathroom.









All the ensuing chaos drove Mr. Bones to drink and he found our stash of rum and downed it.
You can guess what happened next.

















We sent the relatives home and tried to get him to settle down but he took off on Nate's bike, just as Nate was coming home. The ensuing crash looked bad, but he was okay. Nate carried him up the stairs piggyback and helped him climb into bed. Finally, he drifted off to sleep and then it was back to peace and calm for all of us once again.
