Fontana Park Fun

We went to Fontana Park on Saturday afternoon. It was perfect weather for a stroll outside and we had never been there before. The park is just about 10 miles north of Independence. They have an animal exhibit complete with black bears, skunk, and racoons. Adam and I felt bad for the animals in their small quarters, but Ethan absolutely loved it! We definitely need to try the zoo this summer.

We walked on the trail along the river as well. Ethan pulled sticks from the ground and Bennett enjoyed trying to eat them. :)

It was sooo nice on Saturday....great day for the park! Lee and I went there once...so strange to find a little "zoo" randomly there! Looks like the boys had fun :-)

You got a great smile out of Bennett in that photo! So cute! I'm glad you had fun. I'm not fond of the animals there, but I LOVE to walk around the lake and hike the trails. It's so nice!

Have you been to Backbone with the kids?
