Once again I'm glad that I can be relatively eaisly guilted into doing things that are normally outside my comfort zone, because today it resulted in a really great trip to Pymatuning State Park in Andover. Deb and the girls went out yesterday to camp, and Auntie Judy and I came out with the little ones for the day.
First they discovered the playground.......
Then they discovered the beach.....dummy Momma didn't think to bring swimsuits, but hey, it's summer, they're kids, so they dove right into the lake clothes and all!
This of course resulted in a trip to the camp store to buy them a dry T-shirt while we waited for their clothes to dry so we could finish our adventure....
After lunch, and a quick trip to the laundry room to dry out unmentionables and Dermot's shorts..we hopped in the car and took a quick trip to thePA side of the park to the Spillway. The kids LOVED seeing all of the carp that come to the breakwall to eat bread. We had taken 2 loaves and a bag of old hot dog buns with us, but Aunt Judy still ended up buying 2 more loves.
The kids felt bad for the ducks because the fish were so greedy, and kept trying to get bread out far enough for them to eat... but the compition was indeed stiff.
We headed back to camp to sit for a bit, then did our best to convince Deirdre and Dermot it was time to leave. That was quite a task let me tell you.
All in all it was a really good day.....click the slideshow below to see all the pictures from our big day at Pymatuning.
