Platte River State Park

Another trip from this summer - we went to Platte River State Park a couple times in August. We walked some trails, did crafts, rode a paddle boat, and climbed a lookout tower. Here's the album:

Two Rivers State Recreation Area

On August 11 we went to Two Rivers State Recreation Area, just west of Omaha. We took a dip in the Platte River. It was really shallow and we were able to walk out to the middle. But mostly the kids liked to play in the mud along the river bank. Here's the album:

Happy Wiener Wednesday, Everyone

Our First Digital Video

We traded in our old Hi-8 camcorder for a little Flip Mino HD video recorder. Here's the first video we took. More to come.

Nebraska State Museum

After we left Schramm State Park, we drove down to Lincoln to the Nebraska State Museum. Maggie calls it the "dinosaur museum". The kids love looking at all the mastodons, mammoths, dinosaurs, and other animals. There's also a big "hands on" play room where the kids spent over an hour. We have a membership and visit the museum several times per year.

Schramm State Park

Today we went to Schramm State Park near Gretna, NE. There are lots of hands-on things for the kids, plus a small aquarium.

The weather was nice, so we played outside for a while, too.
