A bike ride to la belle province – a rather fuzzy conclusion

The first two posts in this series are here and here.
On the way home from our Very Long Bike Ride we spied a field of dandelions on the verge of exploding. So of course we had to run through it. They were a still a little damp from a recent rain so the fluff stuck to our legs a little bit. S’ok though.
But then we did That Thing We Often Do When Confronted with a Field of Fluff.
1) Pick a bouquet of dandelions:
2) AND BLOW.
Try not to get any up your nose.
3) And/or wave them around madly.
The fun quotient increases exponentially with every person involved and with every bunch of dandelions. Trust me on this.
We were home within a few moments after this little scene, feeling tired and happy and ready for a good snack.
It’s amazing, the sense of accomplishment I get when we do things like this. Even if it’s something as simple as waving a bunch of weeds in the air. :)
