Explorers

We started our day with an animal track matching game and the kids did remember most of them.

In the chicken coop we compared chicken feet with duck feet and collected some eggs.

Off we went for a hike to see what tracks we can find out in nature. Some very clear horse tracks, a dog, deer and cow tracks, and some tire tracks also got the kids attention.

We left the trail to get up to the lookout post, Lafayette was still covered in fog. By the time we finished snack, the sun came thru and we continued our hike. Each kid got to hike solo thru the new mustard plants. Once we arrived by the big oak everyone was ready to climb the tree. We watched the cows across the fence, one mother cow and three calves, baby boys we figured.

Time to get back down to the Ranch, we met with the other group and cracked some black walnuts, they do taste good.

The last few minutes we got to play the cat and mouse game in the yurt and it seemed everyone had fun and took part in it.

A great day for our explorers.
