A Trip to the Springs Preserve

We took a trip with Avery's pre-school group to the Springs Preserve -- so much fun. That place was so cool, I want to drop the kids off with a sitter and just go with Danny for a date. There was way too much to take in for the attention span of my toddlers. It's a well-spring of history and economics. Their favorite was the simulated Flash Flood, where we all gathered in a little room with rocky walls, and watched a short clip about thunderstorms in the desert when suddenly there was a flash flood warning on the video; you guessed it, next thing you know there's water pouring down the rocks on the walls and rushing under the platform we were all standing on, splashing us as it went by. Way cool.
