Being the Borquez's: Illegal Activities at the Drive-In....

It's been almost a year since Chris and I have been to our local drive in movie. Friday night we decided to load Kal-el up ...along with some snacks and head out to see what features were playing. We always enjoy going there. It's like going back in time and being part of another era. Really neat. As we pulled in to a nice little spot on the grass I noticed that there were only a few cars in attendance. I think its a better experience when its not overly crowded.
A few minutes prior the first feature starting Chris decided he wanted some pop corn. It seemed to be takeing a little longer than what I would of expected so I started getting a bit bored and restless. To combat those feelings I do what I usually do and that's pull out a camera and start takeing pictures of Super and whatever it is that we are doing for blog purposes! I started snapping away at Kal-el, who wasn't too thrilled about it. His little mind was focused on the fact that Daddy wasn't in the car this us. When I was getting ready to take my third picture I was startled by a loud tapping sound on my window. "Just a second" I said thinking it was Chris, I must of locked him out when he went for pop corn. I glanced over and then jumped a little when I saw it was a strange man peering in the glass. I just glared at him. He tapped again. I prayed Chris would come back soon and choke him out :) I let the window come down about two inches and thats when I was given the third degree. "Uh Miss do you know what your doing is highly illegal?" I was a bit taken back by this remark and kind of wanted to laugh in his face but I held it in. "What am I doing?" I asked in disbelief. "Well you have your camera out here and thats illegal and I need you to put it away right this second!" Oh wow was this guy really doing this. "Ummm ok sure..whatever" I mumbled. Didn't know it was illegal to take pictures of MY child BEFORE the movie even started. I understand that Barney Fife was just trying to do his job in protecting the world from copyright infringement but geez what did he think I was going to do take a picture of every frame of the movie. It's a camera not a VIDEOcamera and besides..THE MOVIE HASN'T STARTED!

By the time Chris came back to the car all the excitement was over. I had just enough time to share the story before the feature started. I don't know what it is about me but I always run into these authoritarian types lol. Despite me getting "in trouble" we had a wonderful time. I hope we are able to go at least one more time before it closes down for the fall/winter season. I guess I'll just have to leave my camera at home next time!
