Clay, Water and Teeter Totters

Some friends who were not able to join us on this trip to the Bad Lands asked us to go again this week, and we were glad to oblige. The kids (6 in all) played in the clay hills for more than an hour while moms (mostly) sat in the shade and had a visit. When the sun go to be a little too hot for the kids, we headed over to a local park to play on the equipment, and then to a stream that the kids found running near by. The afternoon was filled with adventures, home bases in the woods, sightings of frog eggs, 'dinosaur bone fossils', fish watching, and teeter totters.
