THE GREAT OUTDOORS

GRANDDAUGHTER AND I VISITED A NATURE RESERVE YESTERDAY
WE LOVED THE BEAUTIFUL TREES, THE BLUE SKIES, AND THE STREAMS
WE FOUND A BIRD NEST BUT IT WAS EMPTY
WE LEFT IT ALONE BUT TOOK ONE PICTURE OF IT
VIEW FROM THE THE TOP OF GERMANTOWN DAM AND RESERVOIR
WE COULDN'T HAVE HAD A MORE BEAUTIFUL DAY
THE PEOPLE AT McDONALD'S WERE NICE
ENOUGH TO PACK US PICNIC LUNCHES. WE GATHERED A FEW STICKS BUT ONLY TOOK ONES THAT HAD FALLEN.
WE WERE CAREFUL TO NOT PULL ANYTHING FROM THE TREES
AND WE LEFT THINGS AS WE'D FOUND THEM
WE FOUND THIS LOVELY PICNIC AREA AND
THOUGHT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT
LOCATION FOR A RUSTIC LOG CABIN
GRANDDAUGHTER LOVED BEING OUTDOORS
AND WAS GLAD SHE COULD BE CLOSE TO THE STREAM

Granddaughter and I decided to go on an adventure yesterday. We were in the great outdoors, observing and listening to all the sights and sounds nature offered. We were respectful of all we saw and didn't do anything to disturb the animals or plants. We picked up a few sticks though, to use as sunflower stems. We might make the fabric flowers on Granddaughter's next visit.

WOW--I got all tired out just reading all about your adventures---looked like alot of fun--especially Micky D's for Lunch!!!!!!!I thank you for doing so much with your granddaughter--what memories you have created for her!
I do think I need to come out--so you can create some memories for me, too--of course you would have to get me to leave all your kitties and pup long enough first!!!!! Hugs, Di
