Picnic In The Park ...

In Okotoks

Aug. 25, 2011

We left BC to head back to Okotoks, AB ...

to finish packing up to move on Friday ...

there was nothing to eat at the Condo ...

plus ... I was too tired to bother with dinner ...

so we decided to have a picnic at the Sheep River Campground ...

After dinner ...
the kids spent some time playing ..
Ella was amazed by the pipe communication system ...
Craig and James thought it was a grand thing too ...

The kids were getting pretty warm from playing and running around ...

we ventured down to the river to cool off ...

the kids were hesitant to go in with their clothes ...

but it was okay as I had laundry to do anyway ...

so in they went ...

the highlight of this evening was catching minnows ...

another family was there with their children ...

the girls had metal strainers to catch the minnows ...

(apparently all the little fishing nets were sold out)

the girls were so sweet and gave one to our bunch ...

so that they could join in the fun ...

we ended up staying for quite a few hours ...

then it was time to go ...

and have dessert at the DQ ...
