This was a little adventure that we took earlier in the month.

The kiddos and I really needed a day out of the house, so we took Nana to lunch, and then we decided to head over to Diamond, MO and visit the George Washington Carver Museum. I hadn’t been there since I was a teenager, and I knew that the boy’s would love it.

The Museum is free to the public, and has a beautiful walking trail to take too.

025

I would like to visit again in the Fall.

032

There were lots of bridges to see.

055

The boy’s loved the lake.

058

It was a warm Summer day, and a thunderstorm was on its way.

065

There were lots of Bullfrogs and so many dragon-flies too.

We crossed one more bridge, to find the home that George Washington Carver grew up in.

071

It was a beautiful home.

074

The view was amazing too.

077

The day at the Museum was wonderful, and after all of that walking the boys crashed out for a bit too.

Bring on the Fall weather, so we can visit again.
