An Afternoon at McCormick's Creek...

We visited McCormick's Creek State Park on Saturday, 2nd May. We enjoyed a lovely hike on one of the quieter trails - one which we hadn't hiked before in all of our visits to this special place - and saw many interesting plants. We also hiked past the remnants of the old Peden Farm Site, including the spring house and the ruin of the massive barn. We ended the day playing soccer and frisbee on a lovely lawn! :)
