Oh the excitement...

The most exciting thing happened yesterday! The bug man came to spray..... it's true, not much excitement going on around here lately. Well there has been a couple of things.
Randy's class went on a field trip to the Desert Outdoor Center at Lake Pleasant, last Friday.
Here is the lake...

The first class taught them about the Hohokam Indians, petroglyphs and pictographs.

They got to paint their own pictographs.

Randy painted the sun, water, land and a man. A little hard to see in the picture.

This class was about aquatic life.
They got to examine dirty pond water and found some interesting
and creepy things living in there.

The other class was about desert animals.
They (and I) learned some cool stuff about the difference between venom and poison.
Learned what to do when you hear a rattlesnake.
Also learned that it was not a good idea to lick a frog!!
This was one of the best field trips we've been on out of all since kindergarten!!
