Going on a BEAR HUNT

Great Hallow Lake

Throwing rocks in a pond is a must for Aidan and Ethan near any body of water. I packed an extra outfit each for this very purpose. However we had a misap of another kind when Aidan's aim went haywire. He threw a rock square on the side of Kyle head. The funny part is that Aidan was trying to throw straight. Kyle was squatting behind him on the left side digging up a rock with Ethan.

"Oh so sorry Dad."

On this day Ethan discovered the flow of the river. Kyle taught him to drop sticks and leaves on one side of the bridge and run across the way to see them float through.

Happily filling his pockets with acorn.

Picking up treasures to take home. And to think none of the acorns went through the wash. That was a proud moment when I remembered to empty their pockets at the door when we came home.

Going on a bear hunt.

Kyle found a different way to use Ethan's vest.

AWE...BEAR!!!!

" Got em A" Ethan yells to A for Aidan.

We scared the bear off.

Pretty.

Aidan ran ahead of us on the trail. I found him sitting here waiting for the rest of the family to catch up.

Tran instincts: fish when near water.
