Mepkin Abbey with Grandma!

Grandma arrived last night!  Yay Grandma! She brought Grandpa Andy with her too!

We started off our day at the Knights of Columbus breakfast at Applebees.  It as good, and a nice turn out.

Our next stop was Mepkin Abbey.  Grandma had not been out there, so we thought we would show her!

What are you looking at Lon?

A black cricket with yellow racing stripes

Maybe we could take him home? We let him go!

I love cardinals

lizards. Lon still loves lizards

This was the front yard of the original plantation.

Can you find the squirrel?

It was a fun day. We went home, built a shelf for Lon. Grilled steaks, had the neighbors over. The boys used every squirt gun and water pistol they could find.  Had a wonderful time getting soaking wet!
