Our annual trip to the Hot Lava Baking Company for donuts...
Caroline and Margaret coming back from their trail ride. Serious faces from the "mosquito forest" they had to go through...
A little ice cream treat from Goody's after the magic show on Thursday night. We ended up having to ride our bikes home in the pitch dark, which the girls thought was a little scary but I thought was quite fun.
Caroline feeding the trout at the High Desert Museum. We LOVE this museum and spent five hours there this year between all the indoor and outdoor exhibits.
Margaret watching the stream full of trout. We especially enjoyed the "Desert Dwellers" presentation where they brought out various raptors and other animals for us to see up close and personal, including a badger and a baby porcupine. One of the raptors flew directly over our heads, even flapping its wings right onto our heads--quite exhilarating!
The High Desert Museum also had an interesting exhibit on the Old West, complete with a "Hell on Wheels" traveling saloon and gambling wagon. The actors were great with the kids, showing them card tricks and offering them whiskey :-)
One last ride on Saturday morning before leaving for home. We all went for a ride along the river loop together--the only time we made it around the river loop the whole week. There's always next year!
