some pictures from our maine vaca - interesting first few days - stopped at the muddy rudder on the way up for lunch and got stung by a wasp on my ring finger - finger blew up to 2x it's size and was worried we would have to the ring removed - all was fine the next day

except when I built that cairn in picture 3 I dropped the large flat base stone climbing up the 25' rock embankment on my hand above the ring finger and it swelled up like a boxing glove - just sore now

then on the third day I was out with my FIL waiting for coals to heat up in the grill drinking a glass of wine when I felt a drop hit me - the drop turned out to be poop from a hummingbird - fight afterward I hear the sound of one hovering, looked up and it was feeding young in a nest - you can see the beak in the last photo if you look close.

so if it is good luck to be pooped on by a bird - is it really good luck if you get hit by a hummer?
