Dam-Building
Canyon Creek, a small offshoot of the mighty John Day River, butts into our backyard. Most days, it is forbidden to play in it (because usually it's fast-flowing), but today we undid the chicken wire fence partly to let ourselves down. Finn and Lucy were going to build a dam. We spent an hour placing rocks, making sure we had a wide foundation layer to support the top of the dam (Finn taught me that one). I don't know that it'll remain intact overnight, but it looked pretty cool when it was finished.

Fun! And Lucy looks so cute in her little tutu suit! :)
Hi, miss you guys! It's Jo here (Amelia from Fairfax's mom). Looks like fun times. We had a lovely 'mucking around in the garden' day today and i thought of you and your fabulous brood.

Wow! How many people have a real live creek in their backyard. Looks like a great time. I love moving rocks.
