Our Fresh Air Child






We had a fresh air child this year from the Bronx. We did many different things the week she was here. She went with us to Herkimer Diamond Mine, a county fair, Discovery Center and her first fishing trip. She loved baking from scratch and taking care of the animals. She also learned to ride a bike. We all had a great time and we hope to have her again next year.

Herkimer Diamond Mine Visit








I really think that someone goes and sprinkles "diamonds" around at night. If you dig you may find them, but I found mine way to easily by just lifting up the rocks. You can see a "sample" of one I found at the top. That was the biggest one we found that day. Tyler found a heart shaped one that is nice. Most of the others were quite small.
