I went to Costco Saturday morning and discovered that the "kid" in me was alive and well. I saw this little Mickey Mouse train set up with lights flashing and music playing and it stopped me in my tracks. I stood there staring at if for a few minutes before deciding to snap a photo. I'm sure this is set up to lure parents into buying it for their kids Easter celebrations and I have to admit, it beats a hard-boiled egg.
I'm constantly reminded by my aging joints that the years are piling up so it was great to know that the sight of Micky, Minnie, Pluto, Goofy and Donald could still put a smile on my face.

I wonder if modern kids even see Mickey Mouse and Goofy cartoons anymore? They seem more like characters from our generation (and earlier). Kids know them because they're mascots of Disney, but have they ever seen them in action? I wonder.
Here we are, 12 in our hearts, and a few decades older in our knees.
Oh, how cute! Keep that forever young spirit.
Me too, Sharon.
I think that is definitely something adults would buy, I agree with Steve. I don't think children today would be into these characters.
