We’ve been planning for a few days to have a day “date” to McKinney Falls State Park. Weather watching was in full effect but it still sprinkled on us for most of the visit this morning. We had packed a picnic of some cheeses and crackers, summer sausage and fruits along with some boiled eggs and drinks. We hiked out to the upper and lower falls in the park and also toured the campground making note of campsites we were interested in for future visits. The park is about 15 minutes from home but once you are in it – it feels much further away. After us getting a bit drenched and the dogs paws being muddy we ended up coming back home with our picnic saving that for later and headed to our local Mexican restaurant around the corner from the house for lunch.
