Easter at the Lake

It was a beautiful spring weekend at Lake Oconee. Leona attended a neighborhood egg hunt and then both girls picked up eggs left by the Easter Bunny on Sunday morning.

Julia surprised us and picked up a lot of eggs – she also tossed a bunch back down on the ground after shaking them and determining they didn’t have enough ‘rattle’ to produce any candy. Leona was all too happy to pick up the discarded eggs as the Easter Bunny had put ’silent’ cotton candy in some of the eggs.

 

An Interesting Petting Zoo

 Near Stone Mountain there is a place called the Yellow River Game Ranch. They take in wild animals that have been injured and then allow humans (with food) to come and see, pet, and feed the animals. The animals are a bit mangey and nevermind the fact that we saw a dead deer up close (he’s just resting.) We got some great photos and the deer ate out of the girls’ hands.
