I finally convinced the family to take pictures. We braved using just a tripod and they promised they would be good. And they were. We were done taking pictures probably within 20 minutes. It was a bit chilly and I told them I just needed a few good ones and then we could be done. I learned a few things about using a tripod though. I kept it on manual focus, but then when I handed the camera over to Eric or Maisie to take a few forgot to put it back on auto focus, so a few of them aren't in complete focus, but they turned out pretty good. A photo is better than no photo.
We then carved out zucchini's and let the kids float them down the river. They thought that was pretty cool. Then we went and shot a watermelon and zucchini. The kids love to target shoot. I love that Eric teaches them about gun safety.
