While driving to the Farmer's Market this summer, we ran across a park with a waterfall. We were not exactly dressed for hiking, but we stopped to take a look at the falls. It was a great park for a nature walk. Our good friends love to take nature walks and we got together for an afternoon and visited this park again with them. It was a cool day for August, but it didn't stop the kids from getting into the creek down past the waterfall. There is a small cave to explore, however, we didn't think to bring along a flashlight...maybe another day. We traveled one of the trails around and came back around to the creek at the top of the falls. After splashing through the shallows, Skyeler started looking for crawdads. They found a dead one (well, I'm pretty sure it was dead) and all the kids had to hold it. Skyeler found a live one but couldn't quite catch it. It was pretty quick plus Aly was right on top of her wanting to know where it was and Lauren was throwing rocks that way :) Alan found part of a dead crawdad but instead of picking it up, he told Aly that SHE should pick it up. LOL! We had a wonderful time and can't wait to get together to visit some other parks this fall.

The Falls
How far back can we go??
Don't fall in!
If only a skunk would have jumped out at them...LOL!
The dead crawdad
Where did that crawdad get to?!
Photoshopped with the watercolor brush. So sweet!
