It seems like the name rings a bell, but that's a delicacy I've not tasted. JoAnn - Welcome! I haven't managed to drop in on any of the former Wordless Wednesday crowd since I quit participating. I did today, though! Simon - Maybe I'll try to bring the book with a picture of Fuzzy Butt falls. You really have to see it to understand. Amy - I never had the problem of not wanting to hang out with my dad. He can get along with pretty much anybody. Moksha - I hadn't thought of these posts turning the tables on each other. Pretty cool. The plant ends up looking fairly normal once the opening is complete; it's just a fern. Charles - We missed out on our guys' time, but at least we got to hang out a little bit at the Place and the house. We'll figure out something we can do the next time our schedules all line up.

I know that has always been a staple of our trips to Heber anytime it has rained. At least this year you didn't get yelled at for not helping your wife down, and I didn't get accused of "Michael Jackson-ing" my son over the waterfall. I still would have liked to have been there though. Naturally I wouldn't have had a camera with me, because that's not my gig. I would have just been there to laugh at your puns, and comment on anything and everything that came up. Simon..hilarious stuff. Your visual is disturbing, but still managed to make me laugh.

Fathers and sons...and you in both roles. I've never seen those little fiddleheads, either. When they're open, they look like little water wheels, with the buckets at the ready. Very cool shots of a very bizzare looking plant. As for fuzzy butts. An image search for "fuzzy butt" found no scenic falls...but many images just as disturbing as Simon's. ;) A very nice follow up to yesterday’s post. Fathers and sons…and you in both roles.

Very cool. Sounds like you had some great bonding time with your Dad. I hope my kids still like me when they grow up. I love my dad but really can only stand him for a few hours. I just gotta say Dave that you will have your walk in the park with your dad again. Sorry you have to wait for that. Those are such funky little furry sprouts!!! Very cool.

Precious time, indeed. And certainly not just for the unexpected photo opportunity at your feet. That's one of the things I most look forward to with my own boys: that bonding time alone. It happened rarely at all with my own dad, and so part of the impetus to to do more with my sons comes from that. Now I have to wonder what Fuzzy Butt Falls looks like. The image in my head is some guy's hairy ass in the shower. Which is an unfortunate mental image, but I figure that if I have to think about it now, so should all y'all.
