Walk in the park - a change of plans

So, we were supposed to all be walking in Quarry Park, which is a lovely place, but it was a bit cold out and most everybody chickened out.  Well, their loss!  We, Mandy and Mette, decided to bundle up and, since we were free to pick our destination, decided to check out nearby Bob Cross Nature Preserve (of Moms Night Out Amazing Race fame) by Sauk Rapids-Rice High School.

It turned out to perfect for little legs and full of things to observe. Check out the colors and the tree, half-felled by a beaver!
