Grasshoppers

So....my sister and I are out taking the dog for a walk this afternoon in the neighborhood. On one of the streets, we start seeing these grasshoppers on the sidewalk every few feet. When we get close to them, they, of course, fly off to across the street. Oh, did I say fly? Do grasshoppers fly? We saw probably about five or six grasshoppers and they flew a pretty good height in the air to their next 'landing' spot. Not once did they land in the grass. One even flew right by my head... :) I just thought that was a bit interesting.
Speaking of grasshoppers, there is a kind of ice cream called grasshopper pie. I am not putting them down or anything, but it is one of my favorite ice creams. It's mint chocolate chip with mini mint chocolate pies...mmm, it is SO good!!! I wonder how they came up with that name anyway??
That's pretty much it for now, other than I went to a friend's open house last night, went to dinner with a few friends, went to church this morning, took my car in for an oil change, and of course, took the dog for a walk. TTFN!
