an afternoon with friends

A recent outing proved to be just as educational as it was fun!

:: observation of mama & baby calf ::

:: forest management hike ::

:: beekeeping ::

:: the birth of a frog pond ::

:: dam building ::

Lately on our adventuring outside, the kids have been completely unable to hike or trounce around without having sticks.  We've been listening to stories of the gang of Sherwood forest, as well.  The sticks often become swords to fight the evil PJ (well, Prince John in this case).

I'm starting to think, too, that most of my photos of our days are centering around PJ.  I prefer to attribute it to him being the only one I can keep up with!  A Mom has no favorites, after all!!!
