Tilles Park

After some wickering with our class schedule, the Hebrew class was able to take Friday "off". (Actually, the instructor asked that we take the day to shore up on the material we've been covering before we move on to the new stems in the last four weeks. All of our work to date has been with the QAL verb stem; we still have about six more to go. Fortunately, they have a lot in common with the QAL stem, so the task is not as daunting as it may sound.)

Although I have been studying pretty steadily since Thursday, I also took the opportunity on Friday to enjoy a picnic lunch with Heather, David and Emily at Tilles Park. Heather and the kids have been there before with some of the other seminary wives and their kids. The big attraction is the fountains which are turned on and off in a computer-controlled sequence. There were approximately twenty kids running in and out of the water the entire time we were there. There is also a very large playground as well, but this is one of the rare times that a playground plays second-fiddle to anything else.

Here's David weaving through the springs. (Here's a David quote: "I go too fast and too high to get hit by the water." Yeah, David, that's why your soaked!)
