Anytime we get the chance to spend time in Grapeland, we do it. There is just something about getting away from the hustle of life and unplugging for awhile. Every time we go to Grapeland we have a great time and always wish we could have at least one more day. Thankfully we were able to spend a whole week this trip (but still wanted to stay longer). Everyone had the opportunity to do their favorite things and relax. There were hours spent fishing behind the dam, on the boat, and off the docks. We even tried our hand at trot lining. There was also time spent putting together puzzle and playing games together. Plus, a trip to Grapeland would not be complete without a driving tour of the town while geocaching. An added bonus was the Martins were in town as well. Cade and Caelin enjoy playing with the kids: sewing, puzzles,, frog catching, worm farm, BB gun shooting, "exercising", and of course S'Mores. This trip also include a special trip to the Caddo Mounds. Here we all were able to see 3 earthen mounds that still rise from the ground and helped us learn what would their days would have been like. We can not wait to get once again and enjoy the beautiful country with another Pennington Watermelon and good friends.
