Propehtstown State Park

We took an actual "field trip" to Prophet's town State Park.  This is one of the fields it looks like they did a planned burn on.

They loved looking for shells, rocks, and creatures in this bubbling stream. An 11 year old boy next to a stream is about as good as it gets.

We concluded that this looks like a beaver made dam; and below.....

The beaver lodge! Pretty cool!

We think the area we were walking in is sometimes flooded.  We found some fish remains, which were kind of neat to inspect (keeping a good social distance!)

All along the wetland area were these wicked looking trees with 2-3 inch thorns growing out from the branches and straight out of the trunk.  The kids told me that some birds of prey hang their catch on the thorns! 

I researched this tree and it is a Honey Locust or Thorny Locust.  Wikipedia said it is sometimes used as an ornamental tree.  I don't think I would want this in my yard!

Easter 2020

Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely.  For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol; Nor will You allow Your Holy One to undergo decay (Psalm 16:9-10).

Williamsport Falls

                                  The water was perfect for wading on a warm day!

 They loved going behind the falls.  The water was not deep thankfully so mommy did not have to be  nervous!

                                   The huge rock formations were pretty impressive!

           Abbey spotted this crawfish, which was pretty cool.. I have never seen one before!

Lots of huge moss covered boulders!

Clegg Garden Photos

I was hoping the blue flowers would show up, but I just have my phone camera, not high quality photo potential.

This is Wildcat Creek.

The kids agree that this is a great place to cool off.  It is quite a bit cooler inside here.
