Afternoon at Starr's Cave

Since today was absolutely beautiful, and there
was no school (Teachers' meetings) we decided
to take a walk at Starr's Cave/Nature Preserve
this afternoon. We ran into some friends, and
all had a great time!

The kids had fun wading in the water, although
I heard it was rather chilly.

Such a pretty day!

The kids made a new friend. Layla wasn't too
sure about the stick bug . . .

Skyler thought it was pretty cool.

We kind of like the juxtaposition of this bird's
nest on top of the bat house:

The kids always love the bridge.

I enjoy taking nature pictures:

The girls had a great time riding in the wagon!

Another tree shot:

Our elfish son. He made this "hat" out of snake grass.

The kids running down the trail . . .

Rick looked so cute pulling the wagon!
