Burchfield Adventures

Jonas and I went to the Burchfield park today to play on the playground and in the creek. Jonas threw about 50 stones in the creek, and waded in up to his knees.

The highlight, however, was not so much getting to play in the water. It was this little acorn Jonas found, and he loved that it floats! He threw it in the water and caught it before it floated away a ton of times.

After playing in the creek, we decided to walk along some trails to find squirrels to give the acorn to. Jonas led the way, telling me which path was the right one to go down to find squirrels. The other paths, apparently, had lions. As it turned out, we never found any squirrels, and we got completely lost. We ended up coming out somewhere around a cemetery after walking for about an hour and a half. Lucky for us we could find the creek, and we followed it back to the playground. Jonas never complained about walking once, because he thought our adventure was so fun!
