Hoppin' kangaroos

Kris Kross would say, "Jump jump!"  But I say, "Jumpy's!"



This is me stretched out on a bag of Jumpy's Crunchy Kangaroos.  They're a potato snack in the shape of -- why yessirree, you guessed it -- kangaroos!  Because everyone knows how awesome kangaroos are.



I opened the bag and went inside.



And I brought out a kangaroo.  It was salty and awesome and oh, so cuddly!  By the way, these little yellow fellows are made in Germany.

Game night with Little Man

Rainy nights are perfect to stay in and have a game night!



My big friend dug out CSI: Crime Scene Investigation -- The Board Game.  Awesome!



I decided to play as Gil Grissom and my big friend decided to be Dr. Al Robbins.



Look at the awesome board and cards.



Waiting for the game to start while in Grissom's office!  The goal of the game is to go around the board visiting the seven different crime lab divisions to collect evidence, and then to be the first one to go to Grissom's office with a correct arrest warrant proving means, motive, and opportunity.



Got my checklist and ready to play!



Zzzz.  Boy, did the game take a long time since you have to roll exact numbers to land inside a crime lab division to collect evidence.  I fell asleep on the board!  But I guess homicides do take a long time to solve.  And I did have fun getting to be Grissom.  After all, Grissom says awesome things like, "The evidence never lies."  Grissom rocks!

Green and yellow like me!

When I wake up, I'm always ready and rearing to go!  After all, awesome adventures await me!  I'm also always very hungry.  What better way to start the day than with an awesome omelet?
 
 
Got oil heating in the pan, a scrambled egg, and omelet fillings.


What's going inside my omelet?  Jalapenos, arugula, and good ol' American cheese!

 
When the pan was heated enough, I poured the egg into it.
 
 
After the egg had cooked a bit, I tossed on the jalapenos.

 
Then I placed the cheese on.

 
Lastly, I put the arugula on.  Then I flipped the egg in half to make my omelet.  I may have had too much arugula and my cheese leaked a bit, but my omelet was still delicious and awesome!  Even more awesome was that it was green and yellow -- just like me!  Have an awesome night, everyone!

Sunny Sunol

I'm a little man and I love the great, big outdoors!  There's so much to do and explore out there!



Here I am standing on the spiffy Sunol-Ohlone Regional Wilderness sign.  My two big friends probably really liked the sign since it was brown.  After all, they always like to comment on how they used to always run out of the brown colored pencil first.  Boy, are they silly sometimes.



Crossing the dandy bridge.  I heard cows mooing but didn't see any. 



Cows are allowed to graze in the park due to the many benefits they provide, including reducing the amount of vegetation which helps prevent wildfires.  Awesome!



I had an awesome time hiking through the park.





Climbing over a tree that had fallen across the trail. 



And soaking up some sun rays by the awesome creek.  I had a grand time!

Let's get minty!

Halloween is tomorrow!  It's a great excuse to gorge on candy!



I broke out the bag of Dark Chocolate Mint M&M's.



Wowie, these M&M's are such awesome green colors.  I could have just sat there and admired their awesome colors all day.  But I couldn't resist gobbling them up!



I decided it'd be easier if I just hopped into the bag and ate directly from there.  Mmm.  M&M's are awesome!

Oh, Olompali Part II

Remember the last photo from my previous post?



Why, I was in this fantabulous redwood bark kotcha! 



After admiring the kotcha inside and out, I went hiking. 



Oh boy, oh boy, do I love hiking!



I hiked and I hiked.  Oh, how many miles my shiny black plastic shoes traversed!



Did you know the Grateful Dead lived at Olompali for a few months in 1966?  Awesome!



Sitting on the "kitchen rock".



I had a great time at Olompali State Historic Park!  You should go visit it!

Oh, Olompali Part I

A few miles north of Novato along Highway 101 is a spiffy place -- Olompali State Historic Park!



"Olompali" is a Miwok word.  This area was once the site of one of the largest known villages of Coast Miwok.



Later this area was occupied by some awesome peeps, the Burdells, during the mid-1800's.  These buildings are from that time.



Old buildings sure are fabulous.



Walking through gravel is tough for a little man since gravel to a little man is more like rocks.  But it was an awesome workout!



Afterwards, I joined in a dance with the awesome Miwok peeps.



Then, it was time for a rest!  Whew! 



Now, what is this?  Come back for Part II!
