Posted by: The Agnew Family
My sister Carol, brother-in-law Darryl and great niece Sarah drove from Tyler to Georgetown for a weekend visit. On Friday evening we had a nice visit and a spaghetti dinner at the trailer. Saturday we combined some geocaching and a event for children at the local park by the RV park.
There were lots of kids at the event.
Zaph managed to get some attention. The little girl had want to pet a dog which jumped a lot, so when the older girl saw Zaph, the older girl decided that he would be a better dog for her sister to pet and asked if it was OK.
One of the things the kids could do was throw a spear using a spear throwing device (it's got a name but I don't remember it). Sarah did pretty good.
Another activity was building a rattle using a stick, dried grass and beads. Darryl helped Sarah to make her rattle. At another station the kids drew on rocks.
Sarah with one of the caches, or treasures as she called them. Hanging out at the pool after a tiring day.
Sarah had a great time "treasure hunting". Ed showed her how to use the GPS to track down the location of the treasures. She was also pretty good at finding the caches. Watch out Darryl, you might have to buy a hand held GPS and start geocaching.
