This is our view of the bay from the back of the house. We had a little pond right out our back door and no real close neighbors. The area had nice walking paths and beautiful views.
The girls and Dave took a walk over on the bay side and found many fun things!!!
One of the favorite things for the girls when we went to Costa Rica was the hermit crabs. Ever since, Meg has been saving her money to get a hermit crab "habitat" from the pet store - which she got a few weeks ago. Now she has been saving her money for the actual hermit crab. She decided that she could take one of these home instead!
Great idea...
So being the practical parent, I talked with Meg and told her that it really wasn't going to be possible to take a hermit crab home from Texas. Unbeknownst to me, Dave had already talked with her and told her that they could try... seriously???
So we are heading out of Galveston - just leaving the house and Dave takes the long way around, tells me to hop out and go "harvest" a hermit crab to take on the airplane and back to Denver and eventually on to Sheridan... Ummm... it's not just because I took Marine Biology in high school that I don't think this is going to work... and yep, you guessed it. It didn't work. We got in to Denver and the little guy seemed a bit swollen ... yuck. He traveled in a plastic cup in Dave's backpack and we got rid of him before he started stinkin'
Meg and Ella took it well.
