Our day at the River Walk

Last Sunday was so gorgous that we decided to drive over to the River Walk and get some fresh air. We ditched the trail pretty quick and started to follow a log we had dislodged from some debry, it was lots of fun especially when the log got stuck across the river and Adam picked up a VERY long branch and was trying to manuever it to reach across and free the log I was sure he would fall in. (see pic below) Olivia also discovered some tree's that had been the victims of some beavers, of course everything with her is "WHY" so we had to patiently explain why the beavers would chew on the trees many times over. Finally content with our answers she picked up some of the gnawed wood with teeth marks and put it in her pocket. We wandered around checking out different things and skipping rocks until we smelled a skunk getting stronger then we bailed. It was so fun to get out and enjoy the nice weather with my family.
