Wheeler Farm (7/21/11)

Rachel, Joseph and I met up with one of my old college buddies at Wheeler Farm. Except for the decade and the gaggle of kids now at our side, it was as if we had only been apart for summer break.  It was fun to see our kids acting like old friends as well.


Cristy's 3 beautiful kids:


 

My buddies:



Rachel LOVES all things animal.  She was right at home.

Rachel wasn't afraid of anything.  So when this goose came around I wasn't sure what to do. 
 

It was approaching Rachel rapidly. 


My mind was locked in trying to decide whether it was friend or foe.
 

Just then Rachel tripped on a wayward root.  Her sudden movement scared the goose.
 

While Rachel recovered the goose ran over and pecked at our friend's clothes.   Hmmmm.  Foe.  In the end I was thankful for the root.  Our friend was scared but neither child was harmed. 
 

Thanks Cristy!  It was great to see you.  I hope it isn't a decade before we visit again.
