Momma BEAR to the Rescue

She opens the garage door to let her baby out. Love that the baby uses the ladder and does not just jump down onto the car.

Popsicle Story - I like Chapmans

One evening in 1905, Frank Epperson was hanging out on his porch in San Francisco, playing with his food—as kids do. He was using a little stick to stir around water and powdered soda in a cup, and, when he went inside for the evening, he forgot to take the concoction in with him. The night was a particularly cold one for SF, and the drop in temperature ended up working a little magic on the abandoned liquid. When Epperson returned to the porch in the morning, his sugary water had turned into a sweet icicle on a stick. As people do when they invent something great, he named his invention after himself. Voila, the Epsicle.

He was, of course, only 11—a little young for serious entrepreneurship. But even then he knew he was on to something. First he turned his friends into Epsicle fans, and then later he converted his own kids. And what did Epperson's children ask for when they wanted one of their father's frozen treats? A Pop's ‘sicle, of course. The name stuck. (tks GIZMODO)

Students tricked into eating MOOSE POOP by school staff

Beagle B&B in Cottonwood, Idaho

Sweeeeet! Beagle Bed and Breakfast. Sweet Willy's accommodations are bigger than they appear from the outside. Weary travelers can freshen up in the bathroom, appropriately housed in Willy's hindquarters. A bed, bookshelf, table and breakfast bar take up Willy's stomach. And those who climb the ladder to Willy's nose find a loft, complete with board games and another sleeping space snuggled in the snout.
The FIRE HYDRANT is an outhouse.
