Exploring Texas Wilderness



We took our "day off" and ran into the wild of Texas! We found some exploration worthy territory and off we went....that is all you need when you have a handful of energetic kids. In the morning, we went for a run/ CJ bike that took us to a local rustic hill full of bamboo and cactus that lead to a muddy drainage ditch that ended up with an under road bridge that had cement dividers that made our voices echo. In the afternoon, we found a park that had some great play equipment, but across the street was the Texas Wild...okay, we stayed on the trails...but the Texas wild trails...that the kids loved. We found fire ants, of course (can you go ANYWHERE in Texas and not find them...well, maybe the swimming pool..but then again, they are probably there too!), more cactus, several good hiding spots and forts, perfect snack spot, and Preston thinks reindeer poop. After all our adventures, the boys made the comment.... We have been doing this all day...walking, exploring, playing...THIS IS THE GREATEST DAY EVER! Well...there you go. Our President's Day was walking in the wilderness and the GREATEST DAY EVER, how was yours?
