Sleepover Explore

 Ice cream and sleepover with their buddy.  Yep, he LOVES their gilly suit.

Their new thing is adventures.  When they go to their friend's house they go to the cane fields behind his house and fish in a pond he found.  They LOVE it.  They have seen deer, boars, birds and of course fish!  Well, we have cane fields behind our house!! So, I was encouraging them to go explore.  Well, they did.  So now their new thing is having a sleepover and exploring behind our house.  They found them and animals!  Cows, bulls, owls, deer, quail which we found out are francolins). Just a hop of a fence, walk through 1 neighbor's yard (on the edge) and then there is road they follow, hope some more fence and they arrive to a huge field with cows.  They have so much fun and will be gone for hours.  Their friend's parents will come to get him and they are gone! Dylan went to try to get them but they were so far away.  He ran back to get my phone to take a picture and zoomed in #15 and this is what he got! Look closely.  Oh my, they are hanging with a herd of huge cows.  Is that safe?? Hudson assures me that there is a hot fence they can get under and then 3 more fences.  Ok!!  Hmmmm.
Mom, I am just really into "exploring and big animals."  At Marshalls we saw boars and got cornered through a stick and they ran away.  His story was a little different than Dylan's but ok.
Have fun, be safe! I remember exploring all along the river and the mountain at your age amongst mountain lions and snakes!  Guess that is the age.
