Lucy, the goose, posed like a ballerina for me...we were on our way to see if there was water in the creek, and I had just cut her bangs.

We found some water, although we were chomped by mosquitoes and I warned the kids to look out for the piss ants near the water.

Jack, not knowing that HE is supposed to be the most cranky, was actually the happiest and best behaved. "Wawa!"







We left sooner than later because of the amount of bugs eager for Tate flesh, but it would have been a nice diversion, if the kids had been happier. Ah, well.
