Chris,
Thanks! That sounds like my nephew, too ... explore explore explore. It can
be sometimes tough keeping up with him, but my goodness ... it sure is
fun....MOST of the time....lol.
One more quick story....
In mid-June, events dictated that my 1979 Caprice Classic and 1987 Monte Carlo
LS/CL were at the house at the same time. The CC was parked along the street
curb, and the MC was in the driveway. As my sister and nephew left, my nephew
pointed to my CC and said, "Cahr....Cort cahr". My sister replied, "Yes."
Then, she turned and pointed at the MC, "...and that is Uncle Cort's car, too!"
My nephew looked at the MC, tilted his head, looked at his Mom, then looked
back at the MC, pointed at it and said, somewhat hesitantly, "Cahr....Cort
cahr." Since then, he recognizes either the CC or the '87 MC as my car.
Course ... just wait until he sees the rest of my Monte Carlos.........LOL!

Cute kid... Rowan is 2. He's in to everything. Our boys have two
speeds: full throttle and sleep.
