More elusived than Sasquatch...

You HAVE to watch this video, in it's entirety, that we made on Friday.







There is a water fountain in Houston beside a jogging trail along a bayou. When I was little I would look especially for this water fountain because it was topped with a sculpture of an armadillo. Since those days of armadillo hunting in Houston, the armadillo has been one of my favorite animals. (eyes are rolling from people that know me claiming EVERY animal is one of my favorites)

David and I went on a spontaneous adventure to Abilene State Park on Friday, just for fun. I had been once before with my parents and saw a live armadillo. I had been raving about my experience with the scaling little guy.

We played on the playground for a while, having fun with the digi cam and my cool bendable tripod. We decided to take a little walk on a trail. I was wearing flip flops because it was truly spontaneous, we were on our way to Target.

We were walking and David heard a rustle in the brush. My heart skipped a little beat. YES! It was him!!! If you watch toward the end of the video he gets pretty close to the camera. He was walking straight towards me, David was video taping, and he kept coming, like just a foot in front of me. I didn't want him to take a nibble on my bare toesies, so I jumped back and scared him. That is why he runs away at the end of the video.

How cool is that! A live armadillo!

ps- Blogger was so annoying this weekend. It took me days to get the video uploaded.
