Labor Day Weekend- August 29-31st, 2014

We went to Duck Creek for the holiday weekend! We took 4 granddaughters. We had a great time fishing, hiking, making S'mores, etc. On Sunday, we got ready for church and found out it had moved to a town farther away, and because we couldn't get there in time, we decided to go to the local Non-denominational church in town. It was a beautiful log building with over 10 stain glass windows. We were too dressed up. Everyone was in casual clothes. The Pastor was in Levis, with a jacket and tee shirt. The songs were very lively, and we all stood to sing each song. The Pastor talked about the book of Ruth from the Bible. We went into the Village for Pizza and Ice Cream one day. One evening after our showers, we watched "Voyage of the Dawn Treader". We went Geo Caching and had to hike a ways on an ATV trail. We had to search a few tree stumps, before we found the right one. The kids had fun trading things. For a craft, I brought paints and canvas for each of the girls. They all picked a spot out in the mountain, and did Plein Air Painting. They did great for the first time. It was fun to see their personalities come out in the paintings. The weather was perfect.
