good toys and tourist attractions
Today I learned that if you're 20 months old, besides gravel, good toys include CD cases, bright-colored, otherwise-useless CDs (with or without clothespins), and accordion-pleated scrap paper. It also appears that the best way to get a 20-month-old to nap in an unfamiliar place is to announce that we're going to the park, put said youngster in the car, and drive for two minutes.
In other news, there's a sign outside the hummingbird aviary at the Desert Museum that says to be careful not to hit the hummingbirds because they're curious and they hover. It turns out that if you get distracted for a second in there, when you look around again, there very well could be a hummingbird eyeing you at a range of less than two feet (0.7 m). Hummingbirds are nuts.
If you want to be picky about it, I learned that yesterday but forgot to report it. Today I learned that you can't buy milk at the snack bar at the Tucson zoo. They only have juice from concentrate in funny-looking cartons or junk food, so keep it in mind if all anybody wants is milk at the zoo.
Here's the quote of the day from a snack bar employee when asked if they had milk: "What's that?"
