Plunge for Adventure!

April 5, 2023

Photo of Tim, Katie, Sally, and Sarah posing for the camera. From left is: Tim wearing rain gear and a stick festooned with egg masses made out of bubble wrap. Katie dressed head to toe in black with long antennae leaning sharply over to one side like she's wiggling around. Sally, crouching in a frog pose, is dressed head to toe in green.
