I do believe these boys would wholeheartedly agree with pick #1 one of the 5 Best Toys of All Time. Oh wait, these were actually chainsaws…

This rock was good to us all summer. Pirate ship, fishing platform, jumping, resting, lighthouse, minnow watching, picnicking, rock climbing, whale riding, rock launching, etc.
Until next year…

There’s a natural area near our house known to the layperson as Hidden Valley, we call it Bone Canyon. Each time we visit Bone Canyon (which was 3 times this past week) Ari collects ‘dinosaurs bones’ out of the wash; I secure them in his pack and we take them home for ‘identification.’ We passed a fellow hiker on the trail yesterday and the man said “What are you going to do with all those sticks?” Ari just stared at him with this half puzzled half disgusted look on his face. I came to his rescue, “Those are actually dinosaur bones,” I corrected him…
A couple of dinosaurs hatching out of a very large egg. Pyramid Lake, NV.
I’m not sure exactly what Ari was pretending up on that hill, but if I know Ari it had something to do with space-fighters.
