Sunday Afternoon
What a strange week last week was! Early in the week we spotted something suspicious in the evening sky. It was glowing orange, stationary, too big to be a star, and too small to be the moon, which was out and beautiful anyway. We found out it was a NASA weather baloon launched with student projects aboard. OK, not a UFO! Well, we still found a little green man attached to our backyard window a few days later. Just a praying mantis - not an alien!
Jason always wondered what the back of his arm looks like - now he knows.
Say a little prayer for me, green man!
We were checking out our rose bushes as well one day. We thought they were looking and smelling great, when Jason discovered a strange cactus looking stalk growing in the middle.
Look close - it looks about an inch wide and is flat. It is also covered in rose buds - very unusual - I wonder what caused such a thing - weather balloons, green men, or the harvest moon?
Labor Day Hike
We found this pretty guy on a Sunday hike with Jason's parents and brother. We followed a river for a while before heading up the mountain on another path.
This was one of our favorite trees - cool hang out spot! Jason's dad forged the river to get pictures - Thanks!
Who's in charge of this here hike?
Jason's niece wins the award for the best way to enjoy a hike - I like her style!
Do you think this is a leperchaun tree - I wish I could check it out in March.
Fording the stream with Ma and Pa Woodland.
Now we know who's in charge of the hike!
