Slow cold weekend activities

We went to the archery range today.. They had loaner compound bows that were kids sizes.. Pretty cool! The kids really got in to it. They picked it up quick. Click here for a video of them shooting.


Afterwords, I cut some wood nice and thin, and let them draw some designs on it, then I had them cut it out.

Here is what Melinda came up with.

As you might know, we went to Indiana to visit my Mother. While we were there, I caught a picture of some cousins. 🙂

Aquaduct Park in Augusta

So, we kept hearing about “aquaduct park” and how it was almost a impromptu landfill in the 80’s, and some people got together and cleaned it up.
It is a honest to goodness “swimming hole”. We had never been, and decided to check it out. We will certainly be back!

Wow. Another amazing thing, within a bicycle ride from our house. This place is cool! Interestingly, its walking distance from down town Augusta, but I don’t think people really know what is there. Its almost like you walk onto 1920 when you go there.
Without further adieu, Here are some pictures.




I got a Nannyrama.. The aqua-duct is on the left.. It goes under the Augusta canal.
