Jake the Waterboy

Today Lincoln and I had our shift selling pizza and calzones at the Franklin Democratic Town Committee booth again. Shani and Kristen took the kids around on the carnival rides and played all sorts of games. Even with all the wheeling and dealing the kids were doing exchanging free pizza with the carnies for free rides, they still spent $80 today. I guess that's our contribution to the Democratic party for right now - our time for $80 worth of carnival crap.

At the booth we were also selling water. Jake was getting bored with going around the carnival so he came in to help us. He had a huge Rubbermaid tote to stand on and whenever anyone ordered water he'd bend over and get one out of the large Rubbermaid garbage bin full of ice and water. He had no problem digging his hands into the ice and melted water and he had a blast. Here is a picture of him and Lincoln selling water. I realize in this picture that it sort of looks like we're set up in a little tent village but it's actually a pretty elaborate, and classy, set up. Unfortunately it has been raining on and off all week so there are a lot of tarps up.
