Haha, sooooooooooo many people vacation like this.
Thankfully, I manage to do all the hard work of a vacation BEFORE I go. Though I still have the “Chart of designated fun” with exact times the fun is supposed to take place.
I wonder if Watterson is setting the mood by making Calvin wear a jacket. That means the weather is getting colder and playing outside will come to an end.
Well you are near a stream and in the lap of nature. What more can you ask Calvin. When you grow up you would realise that these are the best things in life.

That noise you hear is Calvin sucking the joy out of this moment.

“When you’re serious about having fun, it’s not much fun at all.” That is so true.

Watterson sure gets… what’s a good word?… philosophical, psychiatric on these kinds of topics.

Go feral Calvin, it’s the only way to have the time of your life.

Lying in bed on a Sunday morning with a good book is the best fun there is.

Panel 2… Looks like that stream has gotten a lot dirtier since its first appearance 25 or so years ago. It was blue then.

It’s all that squeezing that takes the fun out of having fun.

I happen to know that it makes his day to find a trickle of water, so he’s just complaining to to complain, because fun in right under his nose.

Therein lies the problem. By the time you realize you had fun, it’s over.

Hobbes, you are NOT feral! You own Calvin. Ferals DO worry – about getting food.
