Green Tea?

Monday morning started off as any other typical day, but after a call from my dear Emmy that all changed. She suggested we go for a hike. Emmy also said it was a nice well populated, safe hike. It all sounded good to me... So we met at Haggens. Now it started off well enough but just after Emmy took me off the trail-- determined to lead me through the wilderness --she started to scream!!! When she finally caught her breath the word that came out was "SNAKE!" After a good laugh, we started off again just in time to see another snake -- then I led. A little after that when we started to seem lost, Emmy informed me that she had a great sense of direction as her dad was once a forest ranger. She then took one step and proceeded to slip. It was classic. I had a another good laugh. We then found some flowers and stopped to pick some. "No more comments on that." We saw a deer and a dragonfly that was resting on a blade of grass. As we were now tired we headed to Starbucks and got some coffee then sat outside and talked for awhile. In all it was not my typical day or hike. Oh yeah, I promised Emmy that I would post this for her. She said that she wanted me to post something she said but I don't think it came out the way she wanted it to though. well here it is,
As I survey the golden green I think of a cup of tea. So Emmy would that be green tea?
Thanks for the hike Emmy. I admit it was very memorable and fun! Thanks to Emily we returned safe and sound and in one piece.

That was glory green, not golden :) But then I don't suppose I should be to hard on you since you did leave out many of my other embaressing comments, like when I followed the rat....

People, I was just trying to take her on a nature walk, and it was safe :D

Emily I am still waiting for your version of our nature walk. We did agree that we would both post our side of the story:) but please leave the flowers out:)

Yes Emily the nature walk was safe and I did enjoy it. Plus I did get a few good laughs:D My brother says laughing makes your heart healther.

Glad you made it back to the sanctuary of Starbucks safe and sound. Sounds like an interesting adventure to be sure. :-)

Oh and Andrea I noticed some nice changes here on your blog which I hope means you are getting more adventurous on the computer but I am wondering about the lack of links to others blogs??? did you decide you didn't want them there after all or did you overlook them when you did the change over to the new look?

Kristi said...

Yeah, that trail near Starbucks is a dangerous one!
Glad you made it back. :) You better both take me with you next time.
Nice blog!

I changed my blog and my links where gone! But thanks to Crystal they are slowly coming back. thanks again Crystal.
Thanks Kristy, I like my new blog look too. I think it's more exiting.
As for the hike with Emily it was fun. Maybe we should plan another soon. Anyone else interested?
