Saturday adventures

We headed out to a couple of garage sales this morning, although only one was worth stopping at. We scored this Radio Flyer trike for $5! Pretty good deal.

Then we headed down to the library to see the model train show. We have a train that goes by our house several times a day, so we talk about trains all the time, but Cole hasn't really seen one in person yet. This was a nice mini introduction.

After Cole's nap we spent time exploring the great outdoors behind our fence. I was actually surprised by how much wildlife we saw -- squirrels, birds, a family of deer, and a salamander. Oh, and of course a crazy cat, who is actually probably more "wild"life than any of the others! We were trying to let Cole explore, while being concious that the woods are full of poison oak. That's going to be an ongoing battle in the future, I'm sure.





And then we spent some time out front, practicing riding the trike and looking for Farley. This is Cole's "where'd he go?" look.

Finished the night off with a nice family dinner and now I've retreated upstairs to work while Cory listens to the OSU Beaver baseball game on the radio. A mellow evening after a busy day is nice.
