For a while we entertained ourselves playing 'the pun game'. I read about it in a book. Two people converse only in puns, along a particular theme. Ours was "traveling". Every response has to contain a pun.
N: The next time I go to the dentist, I have to have a route canal.
G: That should bring lots of smiles.
N: I hope you don't get tired of this game.
G: If I do, we can always just rest stop.
N: Is there no limit to your punning?
G: Are you ready to exit this game now?
N: Yes, it is giving me gas.
G: I can toot the horn.
We laughed our fool heads off for a while! Maybe we'll try it again, going across Montana, perhaps with an "animal theme".
When we reached our destination--Erie, Pennsylvania, the rain stopped, just in time for us to go to the zoo. And what a lovely zoo it was!
One could really see the animals, up close and personal. It was a treat.
