12 February-Millwood

Our second park today was Millwood State Park.

My mum loved the name of the trail.

"Leaning" on the tree.

Some great real estate near the park.

25 January-Petit Jean Park

Our second excursion was much more scenic at Petit Jean Park. 

And now it's time for boring facts by Carly: Petit Jean was actually a french woman who died and was buried there after stowing away on her husband's ship and disguising herself as a boy. Hence, the nickname, Petit Jean, which means "Little John" in French.

I must admit, it kind of annoys me that everyone calls it "Pettie Geen." I mean, really. That doesn't make it any less picturesque, though...

The main attraction of the park is really the waterfall, and you can see why.

It looks so real!

Aww.

Just something about that rock...

Apparently it was "Eagle Awareness Week."
