Forgot my camera!

Would you believe it...I forgot my camera when I went hiking yesterday, and I saw a pika for the first time!  He (or she??) was sooo cute!  My husband and I were crossing a bridge over a dry creek bed, and there it was, peeking out at us from a gap between some rocks.  I threw him a piece of a granola bar that I had brought for lunch, and then I trew him several more.  He went running after them (I was throwing left-handed, so my aim wasn't quite accurate).  If I wasn't really wanting to get to the waterfall I had promised to share with my husband, I would have stayed with the pika all day and fed him my whole PB&J sandwich, too!

What a blessing to interact with God's creatures in unexpected ways!
