Pokemon Is Still A Go

Pokemon was big when I was in college.  I used to watch the cartoon because it was funny.  Obachan thought I was nuts.  (It wasn’t the first time she thought that.)

So even though I’m not playing Pokemon Go, I know the basics of how this is supposed to work and all the names of the Pokemon.

Ever since Ane started playing on her iPod (which needs a wi-fi connection), I have been out on a couple of different walks with her by ourselves.  But last night, we had a neighborhood Pokemon search party, and I was the designated wi-fi hotspot and parent chaperone.

Ane is standing with Lolly (representing Team Valor), and Little Mo is with Lolly’s sister Kara (representing Team Mystic), and Rerun was just out for a scooter run (and he likes watching Ane get Pokemon).

Hey, if it gets the kids out walking around and enjoying each other’s company, I can’t complain too much.
