6 Ways a Hose Is a Kid's Best Friend

Water hoses, kids and summer go together like chocolate and peanut butter. Like Laurel and Hardy. Like U.S. Route 30 and road construction.

PHOTOS: 

And once you put all those elements together, it's physically impossible not to get a cute photo. Try it. Your camera won't allow you snap a shot that doesn't make you go, "Awww."

That's why we've put together a mini-gallery of photos from readers and Patch contributors that show some of the inventive ways kids—and someone slightly older—are using hoses, sprinklers and sprays to cool off this summer.

Thanks to readers and for sharing their photos in the Neighborhood Gallery. And thanks to Patch contributors and David Hansen for their shots while on assignment.
