5 June-Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area

Parkathon Park #2: Hobbs State Park.
Unfortunately, it turned out to be a bit of a disappointment....
Oh, well. On to the next!

5 June-Withrow Springs

Prepare yourself for a...

PARK MARATHON!

Or, since this blog seems to have a theme of portmanteaus:

PARKATHON!

Anyway, about two weeks ago my uncle Gary came to visit so we decided to take him along for a little road trip! The result: FIVE parks in TWO days. Needless to say, we were exhausted. 

Parkathon Park #1: Winthrow Springs in Huntsville

This is uncle Gary. 
This is an Alligator Gar, apparently.

17 March-Mount Nebo

As you've most likely figured out, we had a double park day! Yaaaay.

The second one was Mount Nebo, which just so happens to be located right next to Lake Dardanelle.
"Lover's Leap." Ha. Ha. Ha.

17 March-Lake Dardanelle

So, I just now realized that I forgot to write my posts for last month! (Bad Carly!)

Anyway.

Lake Dardanelle was the tenth park we've been to. There was this big exhibit on the honey they make there.

23 February-Pinnacle

We had the most beautiful weather last week, it made me homesick for San Diego. On Thursday it was up in the 80s, so my parents and I decided we just had to go for a walk somewhere. And it just so happens that Pinnacle Mountain is 20 minutes away from our house! We didn't hike the actual mountain, but we did find a pretty nice trail near it that's still in the park.
