Creature Comforts

Boys are simple creatures. They just want... creatures! And whoever helps them find them (or takes great interest in them) becomes a fast friend.
Grampa digs....
Gramma admires....
and here's Grant with a look of pure satisfaction (above) and pride in his daily catch.
A bond is formed.
We've found a new way to recycle bottles of water: Pop discovered they make the perfect bug cups. Before the cups, Grant would just jam them all into his tightly closed hand, and carry them around for hours. Not only is that cruelty to all the disgusting, slimy, less than loveable invertabrates, but it was giving us the willies.

Maybe you guys could start a restaurant/lunch service, natural treats for those who like earthy living. Instead of a lemonade stand - earthworm sandwiches and slug patte(with an accent). Charging a nickel a treat, they could easily earn college money with all the naturals they've collected. Yum!
No slugs in NEAZ
