Day at Hornings Hideout


J and Eli with two motorcycles. J is going to sell the white one, keep the orange


We went to Hornings Hideout today, which is a small family-run lake not far from our house. Reminds me a lot of Highland Lake. We had a fun day!


They gave Eli a bucket and net so that he could catch salamanders ...



Eli has been very interested in "tattoos" lately -- he puts stickers on his skin and gets sad when they dry up and fall off -- I put this Elmo one back on with scotch tape, which he liked a lot




J caught salamanders with his bare hands!


and ... Eli did not care for them at all. "All Done!"
