I've posted this video on Keir's Place too. He is a smiley little grandson sort of guy. We sat under the pergola on the deck earlier today and I fed him his bottle and read him a book although I'm not at all sure he understands much of it at this particular time. However, he looks at the pictures. We both kind of laid back for awhile and looked up into the blue sea of sky afloat with cotton clouds and I'm looking forward to doing the cloud shape thing with him someday.
Listen to the swell soundtrack.
A hummingbird drama at the feeder provided us with some entertainment. I love to watch them hover and dart. They are amazing little birds. New world Spanish explorers called them Joyas Volardores. It means "flying jewels" - what a perfect name. I obtained that tidbit of information from this website, Hummingbirds Forever. It has some cool factoids about these little creatures.
After Papa came and picked Keir up, Merle and I watched a video about Lance Armstrong. There is stuff about professional cycling of which I had not the slightest clue. It's so.......scientific and.......amazing. Check it out here. It lasts almost an hour and parts are geared to high school students, but stick with it because you will learn some amazing things about Lance Armstrong, his team, his physical makeup, his bikes.
OK. I think I'm just about finished for now. The weather is suddenly fallish (cold and wet) and looks like it going to be that way for the weekend. Glad we didn't go camping. It'll be a good time for the movies and popcorn. Maybe we'll go see the X-File movie on Saturday.
Ciao for Niao
