Before we hit the hiking trails, we went to explore the "Party Barn". The main level has an area you could host a party or reception, the upstairs has games.
And a basketball goal.
We played a few rounds of ping pong.
Then went to find the hiking trails. But not before we checked the pond for fish!
We eventually found the trails and headed on our hike.
Miles came across some animal droppings, so he pulled up his sweatshirt in order to look at his shirt for reference. He came to the conclusion it must be bear droppings. 😆
We saw a lot of animal tracks too, since it was a bit muddy. And had to cross a creek or two, maybe three.
We also happened across Bigfoot's mailbox!
And were often waiting on Miles to catch up. So.many.creatures.
We saw a few deer scrapes, so Derek educated the boys on the habits of bucks looking for a doe.
We made it back to the cabin and Owen watched the boys fish from the back window while I made lunch.
Then Derek and the big boys headed to a nearby stream to fish for trout. Owen took a nap and I worked on costumes since October 31st was quickly approaching!
After relaying their fishing stories, (Cooper caught one but it wiggled out of his hands and back into the water even before a photo!) Everyone relaxed for a while.
We grilled steak for dinner (good thing we had a back up plan to trout.) then the boys played a game.
That actually didn't last long with Owen around though.
We ended the evening with popcorn while watching the World Series.
