Dragonfly Pond

The Asst. Zookeeper and Heathen #1 left the Zoo to head to resident camp with Troop 217 for the week.  It always leaves a hole at home, and the other two Heathens always feel left out.  When we spend so much time together as a family, they have trouble understanding when they can't go along.

I took them to Dragonfly Pond.  I've driven past it for years and always thought it would be a great place to stop.  It was definitely worth it.

I packed a picnic lunch (via Subway!), put the Heathens into the car and headed to Yellow Creek State Park.  The Heathens and I spend a great afternoon looking at all of the dragonflies and trying to get pictures of them.  We also watched a family of muskrats swimming in the pond and playing in the water.  The two younger Heathens came home happy and tired.  Mission Accomplished!
