Spring 2013-Natural Falls State Park

Natural Falls was on our list again this Spring because it is close to home and M had an Oklahoma History project  where she had to visit a certain number of landmarks in the state.  We chose this one so we could all have a good time.  No visit here is complete without a hike down to the falls.  It really is amazing that something this beautiful is hiding down in a ravine out on the Oklahoma prairie.

Our camping friends joined us this weekend and their daughter E did some rock climbing with the kids.  There is just something about a big rock that

is just irresistible to kids.  Logs over streams run a close second.  Nobody fell off into the stream this time, but we all had to remind M of the one she fell off of last year.

We had a small rain delay this trip, but it made for a wonderfully relaxing morning with our friends.  They have a large motor home so we hung out inside and visited while the kids watched a movie.  Once the clouds cleared, it was a spectacular spring day!
