Not Just for Those Over 50

We receive a community enrichment magazine every semester in the mail.  Most of the time we skim through it and then throw it away, but not this year! This year we both noticed a bird watching class that would be offered for two weeks.  It was $15.o0 per person, a reasonably affordable amount for a unique date.  So we registered for the class and we were really excited! We both love being outside and thought this would be a great way to learn more about the surrounding area, and it was! Laramie and the surrounding areas are apparently great for bird watching.  As we shared with people what we would be doing, many of them asked, "Aren't you a little young to be taking a bird watching class?" Apparently there is this unspoken rule that you only take a bird watching class when you have retired and passed the age of 55.  So we're rule breakers, so what?!

That's awesome. I've looked at bird watching books before at B&N and been tempted to buy. You've inspired me that it is okay to be interested in birds. hahaha!

What a fun date!
