Rattlesnake Bar

The kids and I took a little afternoon trip to Rattlesnake Bar today with my Dad.
 It's a beautiful part of Folsom Lake with lots of rocks and areas to explore.
 Andrew woke up partway through and tentatively threw a few sticks, which he called "snakes".
The boys had a lot of fun throwing rocks. We talked about what we would do if we were stuck out there and had to survive. We decided we would rub sticks together and go fishing.
 Then we noticed some dark clouds in the distance.
 But we kept playing.
 Until we discovered a teepee!
To the left, towards Rocklin, it was blue skies and white puffy clouds.
To the right, towards the mountains, there were dark storm clouds.
 We headed back towards the car.
Unfortunately we were met with a park ranger about to give us a ticket! Fortunately she was very nice and we were able to just pay the parking fee.
We got in the car just as the rain and wind and cold temps started. We had a great time exploring the area, and will definitely go back.
