ROADRUNNERS


THE LADY CAMPED BEHIND US LOVES HER ROADRUNNERS. SHE KEEPS A CONTAINER OF LITTLE RAW HAMBURGER BALLS IN HER REFRIGERATOR TO FEED THEM. THEY SHOW UP MOST AFTERNOONS FOR A QUICK SNACK, AND BECAUSE SHE HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR SO MANY YEARS, THEY RUSH RIGHT INSIDE THE CAMPER DOOR TO GET THEIR LITTLE SNACKS.



IN FACT SHE TELLS A STORY OF ONE MORNING HAVING THE DOOR ON THE CAMPER OPEN AND DIDN'T REALIZE ONE OF HER BIRDS HAD COME IN AND SHE BACKED UP AND ALMOST STEPPED ON IT. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT SURPRISED THE HELL OUT OF HER AND THE ROADRUNNER.



PICTURED ABOVE IS THE FEMALE, YOU CAN TELL BY THE MISSING COLOR AROUND HER EYE. SHE IS LESS OF THE AGGRESSOR AND HAS TO WAIT UNTIL THE MALE HAS BEEN FED A COUPLE OF HAMBURGER BALLS BEFORE SHE GETS A TURN WITH DIANA.




IT'S AMAZING THAT THEY COME RIGHT UP ON THE CAMPER STEPS AND INSIDE HER TRAILER TO GET THEIR SNACKS.






IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY IN THE BACKGROUND OF THIS PICTURE YOU SEE MARY'S NEW BLUE SWEATER. DIANA IS ALSO THE RESIDENT "MASTER KNITTER" THAT HAS PROVIDED MANY OF YOU WITH BEAUTIFUL SWEATERS.









NAW, I'M KIDDING!!!


THIS IS A SHOT OF MY LUNCH, SAFEWAY HAD CHICKEN LEGS ON SALE FOR .69 CENTS A POUND.
