Rainy day

It finally rained last Saturday after a long spell of hot and dry weather.  Graham wanted to play outside so we convinced him to put on his rain jacket and there's no doubt that he wanted to play with his umbrella!
There he is!
Charlie, on the other hand, was not very fond of the sound of thunder.
And with all that rain, we spotted a baby snapping turtle by a downspout.  Look at how long that neck is!
If you recall, back in mid-July, we had a big snapping turtle in our yard:

Well, looks like that turtle was a "mommy" and it laid an egg!  I guess that means this turtle is going to come back every year???
