After reading Peanuts Ollie, 7, set up a psychiatry stand. He copied Lucy out of the book, only he raised the price to one dollar.

I got him a patient: Sinbad. Why does he keep chewing this one spot? I put the collar on him, the spot heals, then he chews it again. What is going on in his head?

Ollie said, "Maybe he was bit by a king mosquito. Those really itch."

And as you'll hear in the video, he hounded me for a dollar all day.

I suggested he should consider a philosophy stand instead of psychology. The licensing process is easier.

Lotta, 2, put on a tutu, some googles, and stole Ollie's umbrella and attempted to rob me.

Kim, doesn't number 7, Sampson, look an awful lot like Bullwinkle?

All on one average Wednesday:
Sparklers on the way home from going to the neighbor's farm to get milk...
Stacking hay bales in the morning...
Playing dress up...
Picking cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes, corn, carrots, baking bread, finding eggs...
Cleaning out the dog van... would have been easier without Ollie using the vacuum, although he meant well.

The geese are grouping up.
The string beans are over.
The forecast calls for cool days: we can put the fans away already.
Summer is almost over.
