Today, we took the boys to The Falls of the Ohio to (hopefully) see some fossils & walk/climb/slip/fall around on the rocks.
The ramp to the riverbed
Sean felt the need to wear Glenn's new "gobbles"...
Asking the boys to stop & wait is very often a waste of breath.
The tree to the right of Glenn had limbs (from another tree or two) and debris that the river left behind in the recent flood. I'm guessing it took a lot of work to clean up the ramp & steps after said flood.
Off the ramp & onto the rock
Very large tree from who knows where, placed & smoothed by the Ohio River.
Explorers
He looks totally capable of finding/causing trouble, doesn't he?
Scott likes to get artsy-fartsy with the camera. The space between top & bottom rocks was maybe 6-8 inches.
Scary tree!
More driftwood/debris, way beyond the usual river's edge.
Rocks in the roots of this downed tree.
I have no idea why Sean got so excited about a picnic table, but he had to climb on it.
Although more humid & a lot muggier than I care for, and the boys ended up with a good deal of algae on their shorts (the green spots are slick, just so you know), it was another fun outing.
Next day trip? Dinosaur World!!
