Every year Jared leaves me for a few days to go a a Science Camp trip with the 6th grade. This year, I was lucky enough to go to. We went to a 4H camp in Wyoming. It is a really pretty place as you can see below. It reminds me of home, in Washington. At this camp, the kids go to different stations and learn about things they have studied all year long. Some stations are craft/art: tye dying shirts, science: water testing, geography and social studies:orienteering and mapping and forestry, P.E.: archery, and rifle range and probably the hike to.
Jared and I were in charge of the water testing. The lake area you see above is where we went. There was a marsh area and it had the lake, a pond, a creek, and a stream. We sent the kids off to test the ph levels of the water and the oxygen levels. We wanted to find out if the water could sustain life...obviously it can, but we still tested it anyways! :) We also had them record different animals they saw or plants, or insects. It was really fun! On one of the trips, we took 5 different trips out to the spot, I made a little friend that kept asking for my hat, stalker kid...wouldn't leave me alone the rest of the trip. And another little boy developed a crush for me. He told Jared he couldn't keep me forever, he'd get me one way or another, funny! Jared couldn't stop laughing at him!
On the way home, they stop at a world famous gas station that serves square ice cream, yep, square ice cream. It is a special kind of scooper. Pretty cool! I imagined something different when they said square ice cream but this is what it looks like.
Jared eating his square ice cream. He is so cute!
Just hanging out.

Looks like you two had a great time!
that is some pretty area around there! Its good you got to see that "science camp" actually was science camp. It's funny that one of the boys got a crush on you!
Did anyone think you were 14? Hopefully your kids survived at Chad & Des's...I hung out with them on Tuesday. We tried to "finish them off" for you, but we thought Jared might miss them.
The pictures look awesome!
Hey, Hey, Hey! That's my stomping ground. :) I am a frequent customer of the famous little store that sells square ice cream. I don't know why, but it tastes better square. :)
