Eric's Day Flashback - Hopper Hunting.

This week the flashback comes from July 2010 and is called:

Hopper Hunting.

Eric: When it is hot and the grass is dried out, we get lots of grasshoppers.

Flynn: We like to hunt them out but I don't know why I look under the grass mower because they like the sun not the shade. Maybe I will find them under there one day.

Eric: If you see them you have to grab them quick before they hop off again.

Flynn: Hey! Get off my back. I'm meant to be eating you, not giving you a piggy back.

  1. That hopper hitching a ride was pretty funny, at least to us!

  8. Grasshoppers are nice and crunchy! I used to eat them - THEN I discovered moths which I preferred for a long while. Mother Nature gives us plenty of FREE treats! Eric and Flynn look like a wonderful hunting team.

    Love, Sammy

  31. We dont find many grasshoppers here annymore. Mebbe we ate them all!

  32. Hey there Flynn, you two are clever partners. Those grasshoppers are too fast for me. I even hop behind them but they don't think I'm a family member. Kali just watches them from a distance. She is afraid of bugs. MOL
