Robins distration to get away with the goods
« on: March 05, 2008, 00:01:06 »
Here is a little sceen i came home to . My 7 year old said that robin hood needed to get away so he set fire to the oil tankers  :o. I guess the SWAT team will be looking for him now :lol:
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Nice bit of open-ended thinking by your youngster, and a nicely set out scene, too.  Lots of detail and lots of excitement in it.  Well done to him and thanks for sharing with us.   :)

It finally dawned on me where he got the idea from. Recently i had a controlled burn on a overgrown oak forested 5 acre property . I was hired to restore the land to its native state and to allow the predatory habitat reestablish itself . On the project we had some enormous burns and my wife brought the kids by to enjoy some of the week long burning . I had forgotten all about it and then when i looked at this picture it all came together . Of course he did embellish the details, he could have chosen to burn the forest in the foreground but i guess the oil tankers have a better effect.

Fire sure is a useful tool on many levels . ;D

The distraction must have worked well - I can't spot Robin anywhere!

Great lively set up - I hope they got those fires under control in the end.

Great scene, thanks for sharing it with us. It's a good thing the fire didn't move on to the tires, the smoke would have been really bad.
