Hoosier Outdoor Experience 2013

I think this and the State Fair are my two favorite events to visit each year. I loVe Benjamin Fort Harrison state park…it’s beautiful with all of it’s sycamore trees and hills.

We only did a participated in a few of the many activities available that day. The mini canoe trip was my favorite, but of course I wasn’t allowed to have my camera in the canoe and didn’t get any pictures of it.

We got to try Canada Goose meat cooked like five different ways…so good! The barbecued meat was my favorite, but it was all tasty=)

I just loVe this picture of him…those eyes and freckles

Who needs a play ground when you have rocks?

We spent most of the day waiting in line…so many kids=)

These shells were found in the lake at this park…really neat!

~Deer Hunter’s Trail~

I loVe my nephew’s and brother…it was such a fun day.

Jimmy Nash Park Hill, Martinsville Indiana

It’s so interesting going back to your parents childhood stomping grounds. The Jimmy Nash Park Hill (just called Park Hill by my parents) is one of those places. Over looking the city of Martinsville. I wonder if my parents ever thought that their kids would someday be standing in the same place looking over the same view. A view to them so familiar, one filled with many childhood memories.

As the cool breeze brushed my face…I stood in silence just taking in the view…from the field below, to the tree line meeting the sky. So far away, yet seeming so close. The valley below all in a hustle and bustle, everyone going about their individual days. Faintly I hear the sound of the city traffic and children’s laughter in the city pool below. But up here all is peaceful.
