Volcanoes in the Park

Not to sound like weather.com, but HELLO to Indian Summer!  It's been shorts week for sure, rising up to the mid 70s again!  YEA!  It feels so good!  For a few days at least we are back into bike rides, walks, parks, and backyard lunches!


Tuesday afternoon was a blast -- pun intended, weak though it is.  Two other friends joined me at our neighborhood park for an afternoon play date.  And not just a normal play date....oh no, this was a park date with a mission in mind.

We built volcanoes in the sand.  Yep.  The vinegar.  The baking soda.  The works.  It was a blast!  A messy blast, true, but totally awesome none the less.  With 6-7 little people working in the sand at a time with sometimes 5 volcanoes erupting at once, it looked like a mini preschool science lab :)  It was pretty darling.

Of course, the time spent walking to and from the park together was not bad either!
