Hummingbird Egg picture

Not sure why this one didn't post with the others. Oh well, here's the eggs.

Hummingbird Nest

We went to Farmington on Saturday to get new tires. The kids were really hyper so we went to a park to let them burn off some energy.

I noticed a hummingbird buzzing around making a lot of noise and acting angry. After a few minutes I saw it land on a branch and sit there for a while. Eventually it flew right over my head and landed in this nest.

There were 2 eggs that were about double the size of a Tic-Tac and about the same shape. Very cool!

Drive up Cumbres Pass

We went for a drive up the pass (get the kids out of the house so mom can organize).
Good time in spite of a passing thunderstorm:

La Puente yardsale

So we went for a little drive in the country and stopped by a yard sale a friend had told us about. Turns out the lathe that was for sale isn't something I needed but the box of stuff with the BB gun in it was too good to pass up for $5.00..... Mom also hit paydirt and scored a little table with REAL CRACKLE PAINT on it.... (feigned excitement)
After that we hiked to some falls and came home and took a few pictures of poppys.
The BIG adventure is tomorrow.
