Clifty Falls

It was "Fall Break" this week so us Schoens decided to spend 2 nights camping at Clifty Falls in Indiana. It was beautiful weather during the day and very cold at night but our champion daughter took it all in her stride (mostly:))



It is a beautiful time of year to go bush walking here. Unfortunately the lack of rain over Summer has left everything dry and dying quickly, but there are still amazing splashes of colour to see everywhere.

Eliana has started enjoying parks a lot lately, or I guess I've been taking her to them much more often now that the weather is bearable during the day. She loves swings and slippery dips. She also loves crawling around any piece of equipment that looks like a safety hazard.

It was an excellent, excellent, time away. Camping has got to be one of our all time favourite activities. It's a lot of work before and after but worth it. There is nothing like being surrounded by the quiet of God's creation, the smell of camp fire and having nothing to do but relax.

Well, I am really late in reading this post, and I see that my wife has already commented about it. Still, I would like to reiterate that we would have loved to have gone with you! I am glad y'all went up there and enjoyed the beautiful outdoors.
