A Day at the Beach

A few weeks ago Jason took the girls to the beach at Volunteer Park. I love having these nature reserves right in the city; without a long drive you can be away from everything. It was a beautiful sunny Sunday (and I was at work). We don't get that many glorious days like that, so you have to use them as they come. The girls hiked all the way from the upper part through the forest down to the water. At the beach they found a fort that someone had built. And they did some building of their own.
