Gay Rural Scene

Jordan and I are reading Nancy Drew mysteries together. She wanted the old ones, not the new ones so some of the phrases and words are unknown to her and she asks a lot of questions. So, increasing vocabulary=good. The other day Nancy found a painting with a "gay rural scene" in an attic and Jordan said, "what?" and I said, "rural. It means out in the country, not in the city". She said, "I know that. What do you mean, gay?" and I told her "Oh! That means happy". And she said, "Ooooh! Ok!".

I thought it was pretty funny and the fact that Jordan's definition of gay isn't only "happy" makes me happy.
