Vacation Recap: Picnic At Phelps Mill, Turtle Racing in Perham

This year's turtle racing adventure went better than last year. Racing was a little more interesting to Jaxon, though he still wouldn't touch the turtle. When it came time to return to the turtle, however, he freaked out and was SO mad at us. I have video also that I will post sometime, too.

This year's picnic at Phelps Mill was a little more interesting (and a LOT hotter) than last year. Last year, Jax was just learning to walk and was still pretty unsteady. This year, he would take off running ... or rev his engine and then run off.

After lunch, we tried feeding ducks and fish. There were no ducks to be seen, but we did see a few fish. Jax would yell for the ducks as he threw crumbs into the river, but none ever showed up.



Revving his engine before running a lap ~ the only time he'd pause from his racing was to push his lawn mower around a little. Mostly, he raced.
