"Very cute." Nick commented.
"It'll be good for tomorrow, being out in the sun for most of the day." Erin said.
"When in Texas…" Sara muttered.
"Girls why do you go and say goodbye to Grandma and Pops and we'll head home and see about lunch."
"She still treats us like us we were five." Lara-Jo said.
"I remember when you were five." Nick recalled. "You ran around and insisted that everyone direct their questions to your doll rather than you and you Miss Stacey had an invisible dog named Baxter."
"Still doesn't beat the Red Fish, Blue Fish thing." Sara commented.
"He told you about that?" Erin asked.
"No Jillian did." Sara replied.
"How do you know about it?" Nick asked.
"Nick I may have been married to your brother for 20 years, but I've been Caroline's best friend since we were five. I spent more time here growing up than I did at home. I was here the day you came home from the hospital, the day you took your first steps and said your first word. I even recall changing your diaper once."
"Let's not even get into that." Nick said.
"What's this about a red fish and a blue fish?" Lara-Jo inquired.
"I'll tell you on the way home. Go and say goodbye."
"Fine." They went inside.
"I could tell you where his birth mark is." Erin offered to tell Sara.
"Okay enough embarrassing me today." Nick suggested.
"I was only just getting started." Erin said with a smile.
"Remind me to give you my e-mail address before I go home." Sara told her.
"Deal. I should go and say goodbye too. It was nice to have met you Sara."
"You too Erin."
"So you had fun while I was gone?" Nick sat down.
"I like your family so far. Are they all like that?"
"Pretty much."
"Tomorrow should be fun."
"So do you like your hat?"
"It's better than that headdress Greg wore and danced around the lab in." Sara said.
"High praise."
"At least it's not pink." Sara added.
"That will do." Nick kissed her.
"Get a room." Lara-Jo called out.
"Weren't you going home?" Nick asked.
"There are still indecency laws in Texas." Lara-Jo reminded him.
"Did you know the Encyclopaedia Britannica is banned from Texas because it tells you how to make beer at home?" Sara asked. "Or that there is an anticrime law requires criminals to give their victims 24 hours notice, either orally or in writing, and to explain the nature of the crime to be committed."
"Greg?" Nick guessed.
"He thought I should know the things I could get arrested for. You can't take more than three sips of a beer while standing up at any one time either. You can legally shoot someone if they give you the gun first."
"You know I think most of the family should have been arrested for that beer thing." Stacey said.
"There's another good one. If you get let out of jail and request it you have to be given a horse and a gun."
"That's exactly what you want to give a criminal a gun and a means to get away." Stacey remarked.
"This is the state you live in." Sara replied.
"Any stupid laws in Nevada?"
"You can't drive a camel down the highway."
"Interesting, where exactly would you get a camel?" Lara-Jo asked.
"Probably at one of the hotels." Nick supplied.
"And in Clark County where we live, you can't bring a concealed weapon into the county unless it's registered with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police department, but to do that you have to take it to the police department. And if you can't do it on a weekend."
"They don't really enforce that do they?"
"I'm sure your Dad would use the notice one to get someone off one day." Nick said.
"You should ask the very nice lawyers and judges and cops and FBI Agents in your family." Sara said.
