White Squirrel in our woods

We finally have a white squirrel on the property.
He is real cute and not really afraid of us or the dogs, up to about 20 feet, then he runs away.

Twilight greeting us when we got home.

Looks like Frank is as excited to see Twilight as she is.
She wouldn't let anyone play with her while we were gone but was happy to snuggle with us.

Kayaking on the Current River with Dick and Cami

Launching "THE BARGE" to paddle down the Current River. Cami said it is named that because no one has been able to capsize it.
Resting on a gravel bar.
Cami and I went swimming. It was a little cool, but refreshing.
Dick stayed in his kayak and "chilled" (out of the water, of course).

Eminence, Missouri

This spring is amazing.
Imagine 81 million gallons a day. WOW
Here we are on gravel bar of Current River.
