a trip for the birds

jack - "hey!  HEY!  i see a BEAR!  look look! over there...  oh wait.  it's a duck.

colin - "you see that brown and red thing?  over there?  it HAS to be SOMETHING!"

one of many funny events that sent us giggling was when the boys were on the roof, as shown...

and when darcy suddenly braked to take a picture, eric slid into the car.

syd (while driving) - "and on your left, you will see a cowboy in his natural habitat, closing his fence.  oh and a rare sighting of  what we call "waving"!

i wanted to know what crop this was, 

and we stopped to take a picture to ask someone, when we realized that they would probably take one look at the picture and say something helpful like... "uh.. grass?"

then we went to a good little local ittalian place for some good food and saying what we liked about grandma mona.  then she recieved a free tiramisu for a treat.

it was lovely and nice, but we mostly brought the fun with us when we came and with us when we left!
