The drive out was great, aside from the two flat tires that we had simultaneously, the sun was shining and some dragonflies were flying across the little bog that we stopped by. The water was just teeming with life. Carl caught a wood frog and a little ways down the road a dragonfly hit the windshield and survived for a little while, becoming our travel companion.
