Energetic stick in the mud

If he runs enough of them he’ll aerate his entire lawn.

GET OFF MY LAWN ! gfdt6?%#&7

Pretty athletic moves for Aaron. Harkens back to his years at clown college.

It’s gonna get tippy when he hits that tree

more like something he’d do in a corn field or something

Picking up anyone from a bouncy house is off the list since that incident at that (very) last communal gathering with children.

Thank you, Lil.

Aaron must be expecting a wet track if he’s gone for the long spikes.

To think that I paid to get the lawn aerated!

Aaron built reverse puncture stilts. Looks like he has mastered them well. It’s time consuming to get to the store and a tough balancing act on sidewalks. They won’t let him in the store wile wearing them and then he needs help getting back on them when he leaves the store and goes home juggling the bag of goods too. He drew a lot of attention, News at eleven.

Does he do it cross-handed?

‘Running’ is a bit of a stretch!

Mrs. Higglepooder’s plans for that front-yard quicksand bog just got fast-tracked…

He buys a lot of Spearmint gum…

( ͡ ﹏ʖ ͡  )

He’ll probably learn in the emergency room why stilts have leg braces.

Errands and aeration service….kewl

Were you planning on getting to the store while it’s still open, Aaron? If so, I’d say you’re being a bit overly optimistic

Be interesting to see how he does carrying an anvil back from Tony’s blacksmith shop.

For the dogs in the neighborhood, he’s not so eagerly anticipated.

Aaron sets his platform high.
