Quest for Icecream

A lovely day in the neighborhood. Maddie and I decided to go for a walk to get an ice cream, or Slurpee. As long as it was cold. There was a new bridge open that connected us to Creekside. We started on our journey.....
...happy go lucky....


....skipping and jumping along.....

stopping to smell the flowers, or pat them.....


... when suddenly we saw them.... workers... foiling our plan!!!!

there big evil sign telling us we could not cross.....

such a dilemma had set in. We were hot and wanted our ice cream!!! But there was no way across the creek, we would have to backtrack all the way, and may as well just have ice cream at home :-(


Maddie thought we could jump the creek, I said it's as wide as the path we're on... so she tested it....

and would have fallen right into the middle of it!!!


Then in the distance we see kids walking towards the water. Hmm we thought what are they up to??? Then suddenly they were safely on the other side of it?? How did they do this?

we walked over to investigate, saw a bridge!! Hooray we shouted let's cross!!!


I gave Maddie the camera and went first, always thinking of keeping the camera dry! It was a thin board, and I had my doubts it would hold me... creeeeeek... but no splash! Safe!

we made it to the store!! The best tasting slurpee and ice cream ever.
