Laser Tag!

Tucker has been excited about renewed visits from his nocturnal friend lately. No, not "that" friend, but the one with the red light beam that skips playfully along the ground in the dark. Tucker and his nice sister, Dexter, have been playing laser tag (LT) with their dad on the cool January nights.

Since it is dark early in winter, and Dexter is kinda nutso for the LT, Tucker's dad has been entertaining them with it. The red beam makes a dot on the ground and simple flicks of his dad's wrist makes the dot skip up and down the yard like some electric bunny.

Tucker likes chasing LT because it is fun and sometimes there are cookie treats when the dot stops. Tucker knows his dad just drops them from his pocket and the dot isn't a real treat. But it is fun to race crazy legs up the lawn in the dark. It is even more fun when YHP stands there perplexed. Only Tucker and Dexter can see the LT. Baron and YHP can't see it. Probably because they don't believe in magic. But Tucker does. And he believes in LT.
