Disaster

We just conducted an accidental experiment. The experiment was; how far will a large, heavy, glitter filled, bouncy ball travel when drop from the side of a mountain? Yes the ever popular Easter treat is seen in the photos below accidentally got away from Andrew while he was playing out front and it went bouncing/rolling down the hill. We will never know how far it has traveled since it was never recovered. It is miles before you hit flat ground in these parts. I just hope that the ball didn't do any damage on it's journey west. As for now I have a very sad little boy who will be going to Wal Mart this evening to replace his ball with some of his birthday money.
