Last week Julia and I went up to a garden where I like to go spend a few hours with the Lord on Wednesdays. It is a beautiful place with a huge canopy of trees above us. There are lots of exotic birds, which I’ve come to tolerate, and plenty of bugs.
So Julia and I were up there in different parts of the garden doing our own thing, when we heard this big crashing sound above us. Monkeys started coming through the huge tree above us to the smaller tree beside us, and then running along the ground to a tree a ways away. We were so excited when we saw the first one, but over the course over about a half hour, 20 more monkeys took the exact same route. It was fascinating. Then they all came back one by one with avocadoes in their mouths. They climbed back up the smaller tree, made the jump to the bigger tree, and sat directly above Julia eating their avocadoes and dropping the pits on her. The first one that hit her was super funny.
Here are some pictures of our excursion:
One just sat and stared at Julia for about 20 minutes.

I'm glad they only dropped the pits on Julia...I was thinking you were going to say something else!
