spider lily field trip!

Our Waldorf co-op group met at a state park for a hike to the rocky shoals spider lilies! These flowers are so amazingly beautiful. I love to go several times over the course of spider lily season.



My camera cannot possibly do justice to these lilies, but here are a few shots anyway....



There was lots of toad-catching on the walk back from the spider lily landing. Willow caught one that was a "talking toad", but we couldn't understand him because he only spoke Toad (not English).




The kids had a great time splashing in the river. They were soaking wet by the time we were ready to head for home.




Nova wanted to show off his monkey bar skills. He got to sit up there for about two minutes before a thunderstorm began. We had so much fun!!!!!!!!
