We packed our car to the absolute hilt then headed out to Platte River State Park for three days of fishing, hiking, bike riding, swimming, horseback riding (oops - changed our minds on that one), and general downtime.
Turns out 6 and a half years old is a perfect age for these activities. 2 and a half, however, struggled a little bit more. If we somehow could have coaxed him into just one nap during the trip we might have fared better. Oh well. I'm 100% positive that everyone had a good time so that's all that matters in the end.
My favorite part of the trip were the hikes. We even made a friend or two along the way...
Oh, I almost forgot...
We couldn't leave without a trip down the road from our cabin to the craft center. I made a leather bracelet and felt like I was ten years old again, it was awesome. So now it's time to unpack, do a million loads of laundry and start thinking about school starting in a couple of weeks! Holy smokes, folks!

looks like you had beautiful time there!!
Niiiiice :). Sure gives me the itch to go camping, but October is better weather for that for us.
When our son was younger, he'd throw in his fishing hook a couple times then be ready to go climb rocks or otherwise putter around LOL. Now, at 12, he's far more patient :).
