You can't imagine how they manage to get all that into their mouths and down their gullets, but they do. They are constructed for it, with special adaptations of the jaw, ribs that do not attach to anything but the backbone,and very stretchy skin, among other things.Kathryn (KL) Lancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01801435890997786332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5538101.post-9587624541229677492012-08-08T07:46:12.602-07:002012-08-08T07:46:12.602-07:00That's an awfully big meal.

He was trying to drag the meal away when I was there the first time. I rove every Monday from 8 to 10. This month I can start as early as 7 if that is better for you. It's so beautiful and interesting the heat almost doesn't matter.Kathryn (KL) Lancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01801435890997786332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5538101.post-72790750605768522372012-08-06T17:18:39.471-07:002012-08-06T17:18:39.471-07:00Did you stay to see if he finished his meal?

My nephew and his family are coming from Utah later this week, so maybe not this week, cuz they have a two-year-old. It is so hot though, it is hard to even imagine roving or walking a block.Nanretiredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12751965875965511300noreply@blogger.com
