Who Let the Animals Out!


I was taking the kittens for a ride when all of a sudden a horse crossed the road. Wow that was pretty amazing but then a few seconds later a sheep runs across the road. Now, we were on a pretty busy road but there was a house nearby. I guess the horse got out and the sheep was tracking him down. They walked toward some unknown destination. I was a nice conversation piece in the car. You just do not see that everyday.

Camping Weekend

Yesterday we woke up in the wee hours of the morning to go camping. This was required for Little Kat to progress to the next level of boy scouts.

The scout leader had a truck pulling a trailer full of food and supplies. We drove out of town and found ourselves on a narrow road. At some points only one car could travel at a time both ways on the road. Many of the houses there were built right up against the street.

The major activity during the camping weekend was a hike that was supposed to be a few miles each way. It was a big surprise. Turns out it was 5 miles to the destination, and 5 miles back to camp. We sent Kit Kat with Little Kat on this marathon hike.

A few hours later, we got a text message from Kit Kat. She had bad blisters. And she could not make the hiking trip home. Mamma Kat got a street name from Kit Kat over the phone. We then used the GPS in the car to navigate our way by car to pick up the kids. It was a tough weekend. We are going to need more sleep tonight to recover.
