Columbia Bottom Conservation Area

This past few weeks has thrown what little sense of rhythm I have in my schedule off.  So getting to work it's a bit hard this morning.  I have been starting slow, clearing out the junk on my computer so I can see clearly what I need to tackle this month.  I discovered a little folder from an outing a few months back that I'd wanted to post.  Nothing important, just a little peek into family fun and a surprise of a lovely location that I'll probably bring many people back to for photographs.

We took a Sunday afternoon visit to the Columbia Bottom Conservation Area.  It was a perfect day for a drive through the area and a short hike.  Which reminds me- not only was this a fun spot, but one of my assistants/good friends Casey and I took the kids to the Little Creek Nature Center yesterday, and it, too, was a great outing spot, as well as a potential fun photo spot!

I had to laugh when I'd set up to take a little nature scene (which, oddly enough, wasn't of the more picturesque spots I found, but I just wanted to take the photo) and Eli just stepped in front to get his picture taken.
