This is a post on our camping trip to Blanco State Park in 2010. I know, a long time ago, but it ties into our weather unit because:
While driving up there, we past places with snow on the ground!!
Snow is crystallized water frozen high in the atmosphere that falls to earth.
| When we got there it was freezing with puddles all over the ground. Xavier had a blast splashing in the puddles and said this was the best campsite he ever had despite the cold. |
| This is a picture of Bear chasing a duck in the fog the next morning. Fog is low hanging clouds. |
| It was so cold we had to wear our jackets inside. By the way X has a turtle neck and another shirt under that jacket. |
| Blue skies. |
| It was warming up but not warm yet. Some people still have their boots on and some are bare foot |
Here we are kayaking and scrounging for sunscreen, and yesterday morning I seriously thought I was going to freeze solid.
| No matter what the weather, it is always good weather for sand volleyball!! |
| Fishing |
| Cirrus clouds in the sky, also commonly known as "mare's tails" |
| They are all in shorts and boy do we wish we were but it was so cold when we left we had no idea it would warm up this much!!! |
So, I bet you you didn't know the weather could change that dramatically in 36 hours!!??
