This last Sunday we took the kids below Gunluck to play in the river. We spent a couple of hours splashing around. The boys were excited to get there because every year they catch hundreds of tadpoles. Last year they raised a couple that they ended up keeping alive for a full year. This time we all had a blast. Instead of just tadpoles their were frogs everywhere. The boys caught 25 of them and in the excitement of being a kid again with my kids I threw out an idea of taking them home and feeling up the pool for them and the kids to swim. They of course were 100 % down with this plan. Naturally on the way home Jett dropped the frog he was holding and it still is rotting in my truck somewhere. We stuck with the plan and the boys swam with there frogs for the rest of the afternoon. It was a funny sight and we all had a great time. After they finished swimming we took the frogs back to the river and let them go. In all the craziness I think 3 brave frogs were lost for the cause. 22 were returned safely.
