We Went Creek Digging With the Smiths

Faithful Stewart just kicked back on the bank and watched us as we were digging and they were swimming and playing. What a wonderful piece of property, a lovely, fun creek and a faithful dog. Does it get any better than this? No
World, I introduce MILEY the happy, smiling turtle that is not afraid of people!

We saw these beautiful flowers and just could not leave without getting a couple of small plants to take back up to the house for Melissa. Are they not simply beautiful. Spring has Sprung!


I am thinking David and Tryston did more swimming and playing in the water than anything else. They sure did have a great time, we all did. The water was cool but not cold. The boys managed to find a small box turtle and of course Ariana had to give her a name so, she is "Miley". What a wonderful day for all.

Here we have David and Tryston in the water and Jonathon out of the water. These boys have had so much fun in this creek. The Smith's have a real blessing living on this farm with this wonderful creek. God is Good.

Debra and I are busily digging a fossel out of the clay. We came for Fossels, Frogs and Salamanders. We left with many fossels and a turtle. Not to bad. I think it is still a little early for frogs and salamanders. Maybe on our next hunt.
Ariana's shoes filled with little pebbles. You just can't walk that way. This girl had such a wonderful time. Amanda took her up the creek to find the waterfall and they just had a grand time. Anna and I dug for a while and then she went down the creek where the boys were while Debra and I continued to dig. What a wonderful day. It was nice and warm and the water was not too cold either.
At last it was time to gather up and take it too the house. It took us three loads up the creek bank to haul out all we had found. Of course we could not leave Miley. A wonderful day was enjoyed by each of us. Thank you Smith Family!
