Kenny's Car Is Now Arlo's Car

Every morning as we are piling in the wagon to make our way to Hugh's school we see *Dennis and his companion, *Kenny walking down the street. We usually exchange a 'Hello'. {Although that's been a little awkward ever since Hugh told Dennis that Kenny may not poop in our yard. Did I mention Kenny is a dog? Did I mention Kenny and Dennis kind of look alike?}
This morning Dennis greeted us with the news that Kenny was at long last ready to part with his yellow and orange plastic car. Daily, we see Kenny's car carefully parked in front of their house which sparks great discussions between Hugh and I:

'Why does Kenny have a car?'

'Good question Hugh.'

'Do you think he drives it? Takes it on trips? Does he sleep in it? Why is it orange? Where is Kenny? Why does he always poop in our yard? Do you think he poops in the car? Where is Dennis? Why does the car have a yellow roof? Can the Flash run faster than Superman? '

'All good questions Hugh.'

After Dennis offered Kenny's car, we hardly hesitated to pick it up. Between you and me, Kenny seemed a little miffed about the whole thing...but Arlo gave him a gentle push with his foot...encouraging Kenny to move outta the way....because my friends, there's a new driver in town...vroom....
vroom...beep, beep...CRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!*None of the names have been changed in this story. Sorry Dennis and Kenny. Your names are just too perfect to alter.

Freakin' hilarious! And Jamie, Kenny really does resemble Dennis. I think Kenny has moved on to Dennis' mobility scooter. Shove a bum, Dennis.
