Kensington Metropark was on the agenda for Monday! Caleb just received his very own Cars fishing pole from Papa Bob. He had practiced casting in the backyard and was eager to try it out in the water. Gram packed the cooler, and I grabbed my camera. We then made our way to Kensington. We began with the petting farm where Caleb got an up close look at the animals. Among the animals were nine piglets. After making the loop at the farm, we chose a picnic site and enjoyed lunch. It was a beautiful summer day! We made our way back through the park in search of the playground and fishing pier. Along the way, we saw two white-tailed deer. After discovering the playground equipment was too hot for his liking, Caleb grabbed his fishing pole and headed for the lake. He had to try out his pole from all sides of the pier. A young boy caught a blue gill, and Caleb watched as a man helped him pick up the fish and throw it back. We explored a little further down the lake where Caleb found big rocks and another pier to fish from. Here he had his catch of day, seaweed! Not too bad for fishing with a big rubber hook! On the way home, we stopped to view the field of sunflowers. Another great day enjoying Michigan with family! |
