Playing In The Shade Of The Lodge Trees

After his second nap, Hayden and I went outside to play in the shade. He got to practice his fly cast with his very own fly rod (otherwise known as a sycamore twig), push his tractor and pretend he was in jail using the bench.

The Lodge is the best place for dogs to play and kids to grow up...trees to climb, squirrels to chase and grass to run, run, run! Hayden is, however, pretty sure that the maintenance man, Ramon, has the best job of anyone out there; because, Ramon gets to play in the mud and water, drive the ride-on lawn mower, push wheelbarrows and get paid!! He cannot help but watch whatever Ramon is working on...and yesterday, it was mud! Oh, boy!
