Into the Wild

I remember reading something about how our children have few, if any, opportunities to explore Mother Nature. They are too busy being shuffled from sport practices and music lessons to clubs and activities. Sadly, they are missing a connection with the world around them.

Well..it was high time for a creek walk. Seven eager children toting buckets and nets, two grandparents leading the charge, one t and a dog named Tripp (if seven kids weren't enough ;) Everyone was in the creek, walking, splashing, catching tadpoles and crayfish, laughing, smiling, and exploring Mother Nature, just like I hoped.

PS remember how I said I was squeezing more memories into summer?? Still at it.
