We went walking on the Greenbelt last weekend and took some pictures. I forgot about them until I went to upload photos of the new highchair. We have some cool pictures, but the coolest is of a small furry animal Ryan spotted on the edge
of the river. I had the camera out trying to capture a butterfly, and snapped a few of the rodent (don't quote me on that classification). But I figured it was just a muskrat or something.Turns out it's a mink! A real live mink! How cool is that?
Zach is watching me blog, and says, "Mommy, see beaver!"
I said, "Actually, Zach, that's called a mink."
He shot me a "gimme a break" look and said, "Like beaver, Mommy."
He's right. Close enough!
Ryan gets the "Minky" part, but wants to know what "The Brain" part refers to. I guess it's Jared, since he's got a picture in this post, too! But don't worry, I won't brag about him this time....

I'm glad it didn't come after you!! Minks are mean! Living in beautiful Lehi we have the pleasure pf living by some stinky mink farms. The first summer we lived here one got out and was in our yard. We looked at it and went inside...our neighbor took care of it...
Wow! I had to show Kurke that picture of the mink and we both thought it was so cool!
I had no idea minks lived in the area anywhere, much less down by the river. Holy Smokes I have to say you were brave to take the picture I would have freaked out. It is super cool though:)
