We have been working hard to entertain ourselves. In a town where entertainment seems to consist largely of things for the testosterone-laden-21-year-old-Army male, this can be something of a challenge.
But today's adventure was photogenic, if nothing else....




We have collected the buds of a rare tree.




We have also plucked and consumed the berries from an unidentified shrub. Yum. NO! SPIT THAT OUT!!!!!!!



And we played with bubbles. And I would like to apologize to the neighbors, even though they are unaware of the fact that I had decided they were responsible for the disappearance of our bubble machine. Ummm, turns out it was behind the gas grill. It's just that assuming it was stolen and blaming someone else seemed so much more logical. At the time. Ahem.

My god, are the kids beautiful! And you're such a killjoy: a gastronomic feast of unidentified berries is the best life has to offer! The gastric lavage that undoubtedly follows: hmmm, less so... Other fun entertaining games in that part of NC: 1) Count the road kills!; 2) Find the tanks and soldiers camouflaged into the landscape!; 3) Mimick the twang!; 4) Mock the state troopers (that are UNIQUELY dense in that part of the world)! Who said NC was not enjoyable?

When are you guys coming to visit?
