JD helped me fix dinner last night (yes - another cub scout activity). I taught him the most important lesson any cook can learn - how to open a can of beans.
This is the dinner we ended up with - king ranch chicken, beans, salad and cookies for dessert. YUM YUM!
Another local attraction that I had never been to was Pioneer Farm. We headed there early this morning trying to beat the heat. It's an impossible task these days. There was a cute little general store.
I'm not sure why I took this picture but I just liked the way the red windmill looked against the very blue sky.
JD got to pet some animals -- these donkeys were his favorites. We talked about the donkeys a little before he asked, "mom, are we donkeys or elephants?" OH MY -- only the son of a government teacher would come up with that kind of a question. We are donkeys! But don't ask your father - he thinks he's an elephant.
There was an Indian encampment complete with tepees.
We hiked the circle around the farm and saw several old pioneer style homes. This barn even had a barn cat that JD thought was part of the fun.
