Goose Island - the fear overcome!

On Wednesday Ted took the day off to look after his kids and, amongst other activities, dragged them kicking and screaming to confront their "issues" with The Goose Island State Park.
Regular readers may recall the disastrous trip to Goose Island last year when the kids lost their flip flops after ignoring Daddy's advice to not go down the steps to the water.
Ever since that fateful day any suggestion of revisiting the scene of the disaster has been met with fervent cries of "nooooo, not Goose Island!"
Well - no more, everyone has now overcome their irrational fear of our local State Park and we can go fishing off the pier anytime we like. We may even arrange an overnight camping / fishing trip.

Evil Aunt Edith must have told them that there are alligators over there who eat flip flops. And the children wearing them.
