Foot Camp, 4.12.10 – Play in the Rain

Here are some pics from foot camp yesterday. It was pouring rain when I got there, but lightened up, and we ended up kicking the ball around a lot, and then did some running.

Here’s a pic of the playground as seen from the top of the pine tree:

and one of the field, out to the ocean in the distance:

It was really windy up there!!

It was really windy at the top of the tree, it swayed back and forth, like being on a ship!

I also did some “wind tracking” on my own…

You can track the wind on this puddle:

It’s awesome to be out in the rain, and to see it change. Don’t stay out too long though, I don’t want you to catch cold!

Foot Camp, Apr 5 2010

The skies cleared up for us at today’s Foot Camp, and the view from the top of the big tree was beautiful!

The air really does get so much clearer after heavy rains, and today was proof in point. The sky glowed like a jewel, and the grass seemed to push green light out of it, into your eyeballs, whether you liked it or not!

Way up in the tree...see the ocean in the distance?

The picture gives a clue, but misses the smell of the field after the rain. Not like grass, but like watery grass – seaweed or something!

We had a good time, and played a little wall-ball today!
