A fuzzy blue blob that we saw on a hike last weekend. It was sitting in the middle of the trail, and at first we thought it was a woman’s hair scrunchy thing.
Has anybody seen one of these before? Or know what it is?
The boys decided it was the poop from a rare blue [...]

How Wet is Your Summer?
Usually by now, the sun has beat down on the grass in my yard so hard that it is dry, brown and rarely needs mowing more than every three weeks.

Notice to Ducks
A notice to any ducks out there that don’t have a home. You can come and live in my driveway. I don’t mind…I might even throw you a breadcrumb or two.

Water, Water, Everywhere

And then tomorrow we’ll go on a family [...]

BTW, speaking of Pi Day, the other night I was in the bedroom trying to take a nap before heading out to a meeting at church. I heard ~K~ in the bathroom getting ready for bed singing:

Conversation at Dinner
My wife and I were having a conversation at dinner. I don’t remember the context, but some how I was making myself sound better:
Wife: “So how come everyone else is affected by <insert negative situation here>, but not you?”
Me: “Because I’m perfect in every way, right ~D~?”
~D~ seemed to be off in his own world [...]
