Dirty Camping

 
So we get back to the campsite, the kids are playing, Jake is making dinner,

Jonathan and I are taking pictures,

                             
when I suddenly realize that the kids (well, Naomi mostly) have somehow become covered in smudges.

                         
Here Logan, you hang out with Uncle Jonathan for a few minutes while I unearth Naomi.

Eh, never mind, I might as well get them both at once.
  The kids got cleaned up, but it looks like Mommy needs a bit more work.

                         
Of course, if these two would stop moving I just might be able to catch up.

                             
Okay, dinner’s been consumed; we’ve got time for one last exploration before bed.  Step one: stop to check out weird tree full of holes.  Turns out the woodpeckers drill the holes then hide nuts in them.

Step two: observe magnificent sunset.
 Step three: pause for group photo.  (Look Mom, TWO good pictures with Jonathan!)  Return to sunset.

      Makes up for the mess.
