Went looking for adventure, we found it!

My family and I took advantage of the beautiful weather and set out on an adventure. We started out slow, a paved trail that is 1.25 miles long at the WV Wildlife Center. Several of the animals were out in the enclosures, but it was obviously nap time. The birds of prey were the most active of the animals. The gobbler struted his stuff and showed off, until I wanted to take his picture, and he deflated rather quickly. The bald eagle was also in rare form as he stretched and screeched.
We had our picnic lunch and then headed to Holly River State Park to check out the Upper Falls and also the Lower Falls. My girls were up for an adventure, so we decided to hike the Potato Knob trail. And, HIKE, we did. 2440 ft. straight up! We climbed tree roots, rock cliffs and straight up trail. When we finally got to the top, it was beautiful. We were eye level with the vultures that were circling overhead and Kevin snapped a couple great pictures of them. It took us 2.5 hours round trip, but we made it. I made it. I felt like Rocky Balboa in the Rocky movie where he trains in Russia. LOL
So, got out there and get some fresh air. You won't get that kind of workout in a gym..
