The House Hippo






I don't know where it came from or how it got there, but the small plastic hippopotamus figurine has become a cornerstone of our back deck. He sits on the deck corner, about chest height, mouth in a fully open roar to greet (or scare!) all would-be visitors. Today Miki fetched it down (she can finally reach it herself) under the sudden impulse (I guess) that she needed to imitate its gaping maw... Beware the House Hippo!
