* Lake Erie *

Josh and Curtis on the head boat catching some walleye!
Sat. in the pouring rain - we found this "prehistoric forest". It consisted of finding dinosaurs in the woods - walking through a cockeyed house with some weird gravitational pull that made you walk sideways and made water flow up-hill! Really cool.....
Digging up fossils.....
Cora Looks like she is leaning on the house - but she isn't......and she thought she was standing up straight!
Pic by the lake - and yes...we were freezing! :)
O-H-I-O
Exploring rocks along the shoreline by the light house.
A few of my favorite pics -
catching the kids in moments of bliss.......
no matter what you think -
these were not posed!
Such a beautiful sight! :)

This past weekend we went to Lake Erie to spend time with some friends of the family, get away, and actually for a little roof work...lol. Even with the work involved - it was very relaxing and very fun! Due to the rain we had on Sat morning and early afternoon, the work was delayed and our trip was extended by one day.......gee darn - another day at the lake. :) I love the quality time I was able to spend with the kids - especially Cora, because we usually don't get much time together away from the house. The kids and I : went to the beach and even though the breeze was very chilly we warmed ourselves on the sand that seemed to be soaking up the heat of the sunshine. - climbed the rocks along the coast by the light house - ate strange popcorn from this store in Port Clinton. They had so many flavors to choose from and the one that the kids picked tasted like fruit loops -we fed the sea gulls because they were everywhere "mine! mine! mine!" lol - took pictures of course and each of the kids were taking them too - drove around looking at the beautiful houses - and went to a petting zoo. At this petting zoo, a heard of deer followed us Everywhere and bit our back pockets when we were not feeding them! Josh and Curtis were out on a head boat walleye fishing when the girls and I went there.

We all had such a great time - and really didnt want to leave!
