McDowell Mountain Park- Day 2- 3/11/13



We started off the morning with a big breakfast.  Then we drove a little ways to a hike in the Northern part of the park.  It was an interpretive hike that had a guide with it and number markers that taught the kids all about the different trees and plants and even the mountain that were surrounding us.  It was really informative!  One of the best hikes we have done in awhile and the kids really enjoyed it.  After the hike it was lunch time.  Then Tim and Noah went on a mountain bike ride- Noah's first ever.  They both came back without their shirts on and looked like they had a blast.  Noah was able to keep up and they were both safe.  Tim liked it so much he then insisted I go on the same ride with him next.  So, we did.  It was a lot of fun but I am not as adventurous on the trails on my bike...it scares me a little bit but it was fun and a great workout!  The rest of the evening was more walks around the campground, a walk to the visitors center, dinner, another campfire and bed.
