Happy (?) Hunting. It's All About Location

At the Redwood City egg hunt:500 kids were expected. 2500 kids showed up. There were 5000 eggs. Guess how many the girls got?


That's right. One. Each. We waited for the four-year olds to go in and, by that time, the older kids had gone in from the other side. It was like watching a herd of locusts--the egg line kept receding into the distance. Our neighbor, Lisa, took two from her son (1-year old; he was happy to oblige).

So we did an egg hunt in the back yard the next morning. 12 eggs, 2 kids, 1 nosy dog. Much better odds.



Ah--all better.
