We love to explore. We love our 4-Wheeler and the two go hand in hand. I enjoy the fact that my children love the great outdoors and they love to search out critters and treasures. On our recent trip we found a huddle of salamanders and the children were so impressed that they were an easy catch. We had an impromtu science lesson about the weather and the cold affecting the salamanders and their ability to move quickly...the children were in awe and played with the new found creatures for well over an hour. Some of them were reddish and a few had polka dots. We all took turns on the 4-wheeler and had a ball. (no worries we wore helmets before actually riding, the snapshot was just taken before putting the helmets on, I promise!) I continue to be amazed at how beautiful it is in Michigan, our friends own land there and even on this foggy and cold day that we were out, the colors were beautiful. But like I said, the salamanders were by far the best part of the day for the kids...well...salamanders vs. 4 wheelers....hmmm. It was a great day even if we can't decide! If you look closely at my son you will notice his army/medic gear...that was the other fun, the children played army and medic in the outdoors, that beats any video game I know of.
