Our "Spring Break" is about over, and we had a great week! Beginning with a nice Easter Sunday and finishing today with a beautiful warm Spring day, we had many enjoyable hours. Last Monday we took the girls over to Turkey Run State Park - it was our third year in a row to visit and so we all knew our way around the lodge and trails pretty well. The big draw is always the lovely indoor pool! Delaney and Ella swam three times each day, and Steve and I joined them several times too. They also love the Nature Center where there is a bird feeding station that can be viewed indoors from behind huge glass windows. Then there is the river and the suspension bridge - this year Delaney was brave enough to cross over it, although she still doesn't like it when it sways! The river's edge is full of great skipping rocks, so that activity kept us busy for a long time as well. We packed a picnic lunch one day and ate it in the woods. The lodge has a lovely dining room with a buffet of homemade food which we made good use of for our suppers. The azaleas, red bud trees, dogwoods and many wildflowers were blossoming - everything was fresh and new in nature, and we all look forward to our next Spring Break at Turkey Run!
