August of Dirt

One of my favorite things to watch this summer is "J" & Cam's new obsesssion...the Long's backyard dirt field.

A hose, lego "guys", dirt quickly followed by mud, river paths and big shady trees have made for hours of fun. Cam lost part of lego guy's body in the mud the other day and you would have thought he had lost his own leg by the way he came in screaming and crying.

I can tell when Dave watches them or sees Cameron coming in the house covered with mud and re-telling the adventures they are having it takes him back 40+ years and he wishes he were 6 again!
