Summer update

Here are some of our summertime 

highlights...

We captured caterpillars,

raised them on milkweed.

Actually watched

as they changed into chrysalis

then butterfly.

Always amazing!

The boys finished up this years baseball.

We made our annual trip to wild mountain

waterpark

 

Of course it's berry season!

We went to Sam Kedem's for strawberries

and on nature hikes for

Black raspberries.

I think it is their favorite fruit :)

last, but not least
this has been the summer of the
BOG!!!!!

So, the water was really high this year.
In fact it is the highest anyone can remember.
40 years of neighbors can not believe it.
The water destroyed the newly expanded garden :(
But, it brought the kids a bounty of good times.

They "raft" in the kiddie pool.
Capture (and release) a multitude of wild life...

bullfrog, painter turtles, snapping turtles,

 

dragon flies,  toads, and spring peepers
are just a few.

Until next time
