Birds...

For his birthday, I bought Matt a bike so that we could start riding together more often. We've already had tons of fun riding places instead of driving, and we've saved gas money too! For fun, on Saturday, we went on a 24 mile trek up the provo canyon. It was very fun, Matt even brought sliced mangoes and peaches for our half-way point. On the way home, as we were headed down the trail, a HUGE eagle soared probably thirty feet above our heads. It was amazing. As I was contemplating how beautiful that bird had been, a little bird flew above me and pooped on my shoulder! I was so disgusted. I have NEVER been pooped on before and had we not been ten minutes from home I probably would have been a bit more upset. Luckily, Matt helped me laugh it off as I cursed the bird under my breath. The next day after church, I was sitting in our front room when a bird about the same size as my enemy came ramming into our glass window. We looked out to see it take its last breath right outside. Admittedly, I felt pretty sad for the little thing but now I try to imagine that was the bird that pooped on me that was coming back to mock me. Needless to say, I've decided I don't really like birds.
