Hey Pandas!

I’m sure y’all have seen the bulldozer at the lake. Looks cool, doesn’t it?

Max, you’re such a typical boy. Of course you like the bulldozer! Or are there any girls out there who like heavy working equipment?

When I heard that the workers were going to be cleaning up the construction site at the lake soon, I could only think one thing: I have to ride that bulldozer now! So I donned my SCUBA outfit and swam under the barrier. Luckily, no one was there and I was able to sneak into the driver’s seat. I looked down and saw a big ‘D’ on the shift gear. It could only mean drive, so I shifted into gear and held the steering wheel tight.

But Max, you don’t even have your driver’s license!

But you know bulldozers! They’re so big and slow! I thought it would be simple enough – until I started rolling backwards! I fumbled around to find the brakes, but to no avail.  I gripped the steering wheel and shut my eyes tight. The bulldozer rolled backwards, right through the barrier, through the water, and into the swimming pool. Let’s just say the lifeguard was less than happy. Luckily, two Pandas offered to help me get it out of the water. I told the lifeguard I would drive it back, but he took the keys right out of my paws and mumbled his way into the driver’s seat. Then he banned me from the swimming pool for three days! Good thing that the lake is opening tomorrow. I can go swim elsewhere!

That was a close one, Max. You could have squashed a Wooby into a pancake! Just think of that cute face, those big eyes, that little tale – all flattened because you thought you could drive a bulldozer! Good thing they are clearing away all this construction equipment soon to get ready for the gigantic water slide. It’s going to be great!

Be good Pandas (unlike Max),

Ella and Max
