Field trip. :-)

We took a field trip yesterday to Fort Harrod.  It is a state park and therefore counts as one of our summer adventures.  It was also very educational and so is being counted as a field trip for this school year.  We've already taken 2 field trips and we aren't officially starting school until August 9. 
One of the coolest things about the state park there is this tree, it's an osage orange tree and it's about 200 years old.  It's grown along the ground for some reason and is great for the kids to climb on.   The thing that was not cool was the weather.  It rained just before we went which apparently turned the whole fort into a sauna.  We were lucky that the sun did come out for our visit, but boy was it steamy.  Still, fun.
