On Friday, the kids and I went with my Mom and explored the Conservation Club down the road from my parent’s house. When I was growing up, we were there often, exploring and enjoying the paths. Once we went with a friend’s older brother, who took us through some unknown territory, but we usually stuck to our favorite paths.
Friday we discovered that we missed a lot of great spots growing up! Andrea discovered a neat bridge and then she and Mom found a path that took them near the river. We were running short on time, so we could not explore that path, or my favorite one growing up. We plan to visit what we always called the “CC club” again soon. I know it should be the EC -Elkhart Conservation-Club, but I much prefer our childhood mistaken name.
Fall soccer has started up again. Audrey chose not to play soccer this year. Maybe one day she will race, but for now, she is happy just to run.
Mark and I really liked these gears on an old tractor that we saw this weekend. We both took pictures of different parts of tractors. Just for fun, I did this picture the same way he processed his.
