[Image]I was going through my photos and realized I had a set from our trip to Indiana that I still needed to post. On our last afternoon, we went to a park and after a picnic and playing, some of us decided to go on a hike. It didn't take Desert Boy to get a couple of his uncles and his aunt initiated to how he likes to hike. [Image]The clothes came off and he was in the water! Not ever being in a river this big, Desert Boy was fascinated by the way the water moved, the sticks and rocks on the bottom, the deep and shallow places, and all the green vegetation. [Image]It was a really hot day, so the uncles and aunt didn't seem to mind the detour down the river. [Image]Some parts were a little deep, but the water wasn't moving fast. [Image]We reached a good area to get out and get back on the trail, but everyone decided it would be a good idea to just stay in the river for awhile longer. [Image]And a good thing we did, because Uncle Matt got to try out his talents as Tarzan. [Image]The strong vine held his weight as he whished through the water... [Image]...and gave his mighty jungle roar. All the animals quieted to listen to their king. Okay, not really, but we all had a fun time watching. [Image]When we did head back, the muddy trail seemed like a real piece of cake compared to the adventure we had just had. Hiking with Desert Boy can certainly be an out-of-the-ordinary experience. [Image]Enough to totally wear out an uncle.
