Oh, the adventures you can have...

While Daddy, Nonna and TOF tore down the basement office of our house, Mommy took the girls on a geocaching adventure (lest they want to "help" with the Sawzall!).  It was two hours filled with curiosity...

Our first stop was Kitchen Kettle Village in Intercourse.  It was very quiet on Sunday morning (yes, there are still places that aren't open on Sunday!) and we spent some time visiting the animals there.  Chickens, llamas, goats and a miniature horse named Derby.

Then we found a "snake", errr... how about a worm?  The girls were fascinated.  Natalie declared that Mr. Worm was "like a straw".

Then we hit another couple before heading to this park in Paradise.  The "river" was flowing and Jill located the cache inside the guard rail.  When Mommy pulled it out, it had a plastic spider attached to it.  Mommy yelped and lunged with it toward the girls, scaring them!  She got quite a lecture about how that wasn't funny. :)  

Then we found some early spring flowering weeds to check out.  Jilly picked one and showed its' petals to Natalie.

Here they are "fishing".  This poor guy walked up while we were scouring a nearby bridge for a cache.  All he probably wanted to do was sit and quietly spend some time fishing.  Little did he know our little munchkins were watching his every move.  The next thing Mommy sees, the girls have found long skinny sticks and were casting them out into the lake like fishing rods.  And they were less than quiet about it.  But they are just so darn cute!
