Fishin’
We went to the river today to fish and play.
Joel caught ‘0’ fish, but he had fun trying.
The fish got hot dogs so they were happy too. The girls and I went further upstream, no I guess that was downstream, and played in the water.
I heard, ‘Can I get my feet wet?’, then, ‘Can I get me dress wet?’, then , ‘Oops I got my underwear wet!’
Hannah ended up with no dress on wading around. Bethany collected a bucketful of rocks and Grace was busy throwing rocks back in the water.
How long has it been since you sat with your feet in the creek? That’s too long! It was nice today, not too chilly, so I sat and plopped my feet in the water.
We saw lots of butterflies, dragonflies and some ducks while we played.
We also saw that the milkweed plants had popped open and silky, white seed puffs were dancing by on the breeze. We caught some in here:
This bush was turning a nice shade of orange and red and some of the cottonwoods were getting yellow leaves.
All too soon it was time to go home, but I promised a trip next week to ‘fish’ again.
