Hooked on Books discussion

As June is approaching, I find myself reminiscing on all the wonderful places we visit during the summer. One of my favorites is the Pymatuning spillway. It is where the ducks walk on the fish as they all attempt to catch the bread the millions of daily visitors are feeding them. I hope the picture above inspires you to find your own fun family adventures this summer. In the meantime, check out our challenges to keep you busy on those beaches.
