field trip

In May 2011, I took Fletcher age 2 and Desmond age 11 months to Potomac Overlook Regional Park In Arlington, VA.
when we got their we walked to the nature center on a "planet walk" and learned all about different planets.
We also passed an electric car charging station. I have never seen one of those before.
The nature center there was large and had lots of stuff for the boys to touch and look at and explore.
Outside they had a several different areas that were easy to get to with a stroller that we checked out. We even saw a long black snake.
We ate lunch on a playground their that had equipment for grown-ups to exercise on while their kids played.. now that is COOL!
the only non-cool thing about this park is that the GW Parkways has let the trees grow so high that you can no longer see the overlook from Potomac Overlook regional park.. oh well there was so much else to see or do that hardly mattered.. also that trail was NOT stroller accessible..
I would love to go back their with Spike sometime.. or maybe even a DATE and Spike :)
