After the rain

Last week it rained almost everyday. Sometimes it rained a lot. The storm created many new places to play, like this huge mud puddle- great for throwing things into!
This was really cool. The rain made a canyon right through this dune. Behind the dune was a wash, and it just broke right though and made a canyon taller than Spencer.
The next day we had another big storm. James found a huge mud puddle, and here is the result.

Here is Spencer standing in the canyon
And the "rivers" it made down to the parking lot (which was covered in mud)
This is the wash behind the fence.
We really enjoyed the rain and the cooler weather. It has warmed right back up again, but it was nice while it lasted!
Here is Spencer explaining how the canyon was formed. Science in action!

I love the picture of James covered in mud. My kids would have a hay day with all that mud.

Fun! Man I love mud. Not as much as James, but who does? :o)
