July 9, 2010

The kids and I went to Laumeier Sculpture Park today. We haven't been there since Caleb was about three or four. It's been a while. It was REALLY HOT out there today.

They have added some new sculptures. It was fun to wander around and see everything. We really got a kick out of the giant eyeball. It is kind of creepy, but still fun. Caleb said it looked like it was following him.

We saw three deer run through the park. That was so cool. They were only about 50 yards from us. I don't think I've ever been that close to a deer. I was so stunned an surprised I did not get my camera up to get a picture of them. I think everyone in the park was surprised you could hear "oh's" all through the park as they ran through.

We went into the wooded part of the park and spent most of our time there. I've never done that before. There is a lot more in the wooded area than I thought was there. We enjoyed discovering the sculptures on the paths in the woods very much.

We had hoped to go to Powder Valley after having lunch, but by the time we finally ate, it was just getting too late. We would not have had enough time there to enjoy any of it. So, I guess we'll save that for another time.
