Sprinklers and Projectors Don't Mix

Good Idea - After several minutes of bargaining with a 10 year old at a garage sale, Sean and I were successful in purchasing a projector!  Our first thought...movie in the park!  There is this great park at the top of 40th street which provided the perfect setting for our movie extravaganza.  Everything was ready to go! The oreos were plentiful and the mosquito repellent was on hand.  A perfect night for a movie in the park. UNTIL...Dun Dun Dun

Bad Idea - Despite all our planning, we did not consider the sprinklers!  We were 10 minutes into the movie when lo and behold the water came out.  I have never seen Sean move so fast!  Serious he had the projector, the speakers, and the blankets in his hands before any water hit the ground.  I am very happy to announce there were no electronic casualties.   Although, we had a little surprise, we are still looking forward to another movie in the park!
