While the dogs are away...

the bunnies will play! This guy was in our backyard last night munching away. Mom has had the girls for a few weeks while we travel, and I'm going back to get them Monday. We saw some good sized lizards, too, but luckily no snakes. Reese will have plenty to chase next week!

My ocean studies course was AWESOME! We went to a couple of the islands, ran trawls for specimen (and ate the leftover shrimp), and hiked a few times in addition to clasroom lecture and activities. When I left that one, I met up with a similar class in Ohio and spent a day with those teachers. A couple days later Joy took us to a wildlife rehabilitation place, where we saw some really cool animals (like this bald eagle). So I'm being educated a ton this summer, and it's getting me excited about next school year.

Before our trip to Ohio, Walker had his state tennis tournament. His team didn't quite make finals, but they were very impressive. Walker's the #1 singles guy on the team and his last opponent ended up spending the night in the hospital because of the heat (and intense competition.)

Last night we went to our favorite bbq place-they opened one near the house. Julie was the bartender. I'm telling you the looks, bubbly personality and VOICE (not sure about mouth size :) )were all there. The girl said I could take a pic with her next time we go.
