skipping stones, barefoot, wading,
walking on rocks, talking, and resting
on a slow summer day on the river.

Lovely and peaceful feeling Beth. I really enjoy shallow steams through the forest. Fascinating and therapeutic. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Love the photo. Love the quote. Woke up early, trying to decide what to do today. Now I think I’ll just take my boys down to the river and do nothing for a while. :) Thanks for this!

Perfection and then, we grow up and find out what the real world is like. We can never go back to that time when we believed that sitting on a rock, or watching a worm dig into the ground, wasn’t the only thing happening in the entire world.

Lovely and calm, Beth.i like the nice hair cut which really makes one of your grandies look older. :)
Whereas Micah and Skyler take sticks, call our nearby creek “stew” and then they splash and stir the creek into mud! I caught it one time on film but the day was so hazy, you cannot see very clearly much of the experience, Beth.
