Down by the Lake

We drove to a near-by lake with the kids and walked around the perimeter (about 3 miles). It was a morning of exploring. We found, among other things, frogs, dragonflies, snails, and a crawdad. Here are some shots of our adventure, I think we'll return and have a picnic next week...an Italian picnic.

Freeman and his snail, check out its shell

Grace in the corn stalks

Ben used this crawdad to chase the kids and I back to the car.
I think we were all screaming at one point. Ben had a lot of fun with this one!
