Animals in the Road

When we moved from Balitmore to Montana, we invented a game to keep Ian occupied during the long days of driving. We called it "Animals in the Road." We would pretend there was and animal in our way, and describe it to him. He would try to guess what type of animal.

I was reminded of that today while we were out biking. We've seen a variety of animals in the road. There are always various insects, lizards, and a few snakes. There are usually a variety of goats, sheep, ducks, chicken, and dogs. Occasionally, we will see some cows in the road. Today was the first time we saw pigs in the road. I wish I had the camera with me!

Between the trucks, cars, motorcycles, scooters, bicycles, wheelbarrows, pushcarts, pedestrians, and animals driving or bicycling here is like an obstacle course.

We finished our last day of school yesterday. (Yay!) We should have more of a chance to be out and about now.

Today we rode bikes down to the mission to pick up the newest addition to our household- a white male kitten. The kids have named him "Blizzard." I'll put picture of him up when I have a chance.
