Exploring the creek

Today is the first day of summer vacation for the Bachsters.  It's a warm, sunny day in Central Ohio, but not quite warm enough for a trip to the pool.  So I suggested we all head to the creek, to look for the resident snake & whatever else we might find.

We didn't see any snakes, but there were tons of damselflies.  Absolutely everywhere, damselflies were flying, resting on leaves or mating. 

The Bachsters desperately wanted to catch something - a fish, a crayfish, a damselfly - they tried everything.   Fortunately for all the creek critters, they didn't have any luck.

It's been so nice today, not having to be at any certain place at any specific time.  It was a great start to what I hope will be a great summer!
