Family Picnic

One of the great things about working for a college is all of the activities that are available to us through the college.  The one we attended this spring was the Family Picnic, open to all faculty and staff.

The picnic was held at the college’s 200 acre horse ranch, just a short drive outside of town.  The setting was absolutely beautiful, and the weather was perfect.  There were a few tell-tale signs, however, of the powerful thunderstorm that had rolled through just before the event, including some fallen trees and a toppled out building.  With that small exception, it was the kind of day that made you believe everyday was perfect in our neck of the woods. 

To the right are some photos we snapped of the day, but they don’t quite do justice to how beautiful a day it was.  We enjoyed good food, country music, and sunshine, making for a relaxing afternoon.

My favorite pics are the ones of Little Ted in his hat.  So cute – though it does make him look a lot like the Gorton’s fisherman.
