Playing in the River

Shelli told me she was taking her kids to feed the ducks at the Tonaquint Center, so I asked if we could tag along.  Unfortunately, the ducks didn't want to have anything to do with us and our bread, so we started exploring...

  


We found frogs and bugs and this cool bridge washed out by a flood...


It was all water-rotted and stank really bad.  It was hot and we were hungry, so we went to the park nearby and had a picnic...


Even in the shade it was pretty hot, so it was impossible to keep the kids from the river nearby.  We decided to wade in...


Then Katie fell in...


And everyone just followed suit...

 

 


We definitely cooled off, and it was such a fun day!  We are so sad that they have since bulldozed this same spot, and it is just not the same.  Hopefully we can find some other fun river spots to cool off in this summer.
