Post #700












On Friday Kevin had to go to work so Ryan and I had the day to ourselves. We were going to go to a water park but decided to go to the Kalamazoo Nature Center instead. It was really a beautiful place with tons of stuff to do. Well Ryan loved it, I guess it wouldn't be as exciting for a lot of kids. We went hiking for about an hour and half, Ryan spent most of that time walking in the creek, I stayed on the path. They also had tons of exhibits showing Michigan wildlife. Ryan really loved that, some were stuffed animals and others were alive. They also had a butterfly house and barn where you could pet animals. The most exciting thing for Ryan was seeing 2 hawks up close and personnel, they had been injured and couldn't return to the wild. He just loves birds of prey, they also had an owl. He was just so happy being a total boy in the woods. It was a wonderful afternoon.
