Saturday we went on a four mile hike (2 up, 2 down) up Neff's Canyon. It was a fabulous day. We packed a lunch so we wouldn't wither away.

Noah, as usual, was chattering away. Right now, he is fascinated with pirates. He is planning on being a pirate and an engineer when he grows up.

One of the (many) things he talked to us about was how pirates have to go to school. He then stated:

"I won't go to Pirate School, because they won't think I'm a pirate because I don't have a hook. I will just tell them that I used to have a hook, but they cut it off and put on a real hand instead."


I think that, that is pretty believable, don't you?
