Title: Katydid goes for a ride Post by: Donna on 03-Oct-09, 05:36:08 PM Ok, so me and my daughter were at a light going to the mall. Kara said "mom, look at that leaf bug on that car in front of us". I said...WOW, that looks just like the one Janet saw. So we were on a mission to rescue that leafy bug. We followed the car and kept making sure Katy didn't fall off. The next light....phew, Katy still there. We followed the car into Office Max and waited until the man was in and out of sight. I took out my phone and took a pic. Kara said let's put it in the trees over there. Ok, so she went to pick it up and it flew right over to the trees where we were going to put it. We both looked at each other and laughed because Katy could have left if she wanted while riding on the roof of that car but Katydid-nt want to.
