Ahh! The old Lemonade stand...the Wrap-Up

The best story: Well there is actually two.
1) A young couple rode down the street and of course the children start yelling "get your ice cold lemonade"…well we thought they didn’t hear them, but half way up the block the car pulled over and the boyfriend jump out of the car and got two cups (haha...he of course made the comment that his girl made him get out and get the drinks).

2) Another young couple who loved the product so much that they brought back two more friends.

The most interesting story….well there was actually three!
1) From about a block away we could see this young AA couple walking towards the lemonade stand. Next thing we know they crossed the street right in front of the stand and never acknowledged the kids as they were yelling “Ice cold lemonade” …(although everyone didn’t stop and buy from the kids at least they acknowledged them). But NOOOOOOOOO! that wasn’t the kicker.

No these two lil pea brains had the audacity to walk back pass us (well on the other side of street) sipping some ice tea brought from the coffee house down the street for $3! I….mom had to restrain myself from hopping that fence and giving them a piece of my mind. I know I know….but I’m sure these are the same folks who always have something to say about parental involvement…and these same folks spent $6 on some ice-tea when they could have supported some kids in their entrepreneurial endeavors. Pleasss! I don't want to see them again.

2) I don’t how many folks where blasting their gospel music ridding down the street and when they reached the stop sign and the kids starting yelling about Ice Cold Lemonade…these folks looked so confused and guilty that all they could do was smile.

3) One of our entrepreneurs went missing. Oh courses it was the kid who needed the lesson the most. Yes, he went missing for 10 mins…Where was he? Inside counting his money.
