4-6-2012 Cave Exploration on the Eve of Easter

We went to Crystal Cave today. Luke had been there earlier this year on his class field trip and we thought he'd enjoy going back. He seemed to enjoy it, as did the rest of us. I think our favorite parts of the trip were the gift shop and panning for gems afterwards.

On the way home we stopped off in Kutztown for Charlie to check out a hardware store for barn paint. He and I painted the cron crib/log cabin section of the barn yesterday. We're not crazy about the color. It seems a bit too orange to us and we're worried about the side facing the house with the Hex signs on it. We don't want it to fade orange instead of red.

 Lily and I walked a few blocks down and bought a smores donut at 'The Frying Dutchman' Hot out of the oil and quite tasty.

Once home, the kids played outside while I did laundry and lawn watering and Charlie mowed the lawn. We had fabulous steak with peppers and onions for supper.

All in all, a very nice day spent together as a family.
