Tuesday 7/7

A little something for everyone on a day with beautiful weather! We started out with a morning visit to Thomas Park. There was a daycare there from Anamosa that was swarming all over the play area, so we decided to start out with a short trail hike.

Unfortunately, our trail hike lasted through the other group's very early lunch (we got back at 11:20 and they were finishing their lunches and heading back to the play area - sigh) but it turned out to be a mixed blessing - there were some nice kids in that group, so we made some new friends.

We finally got hungry and headed back to the house for our own lunches. Then we went to the Hiawatha library, where Leslie Charipar, the artistic director at Theatre Cedar Rapids, was conducting an acting workshop for middle school students. She said we could stay and watch Harrison, but when we finally got a little bored, we headed out to the children's section to pick out some books to check out and play in the fun zone.


Leslie is in the tie-dye shirt. Harrison is in grey.


Believe it or not, this is a breathing exercise.
The little kids were doing this in the back row, but they stopped before I could snap their picture!
