Johnson's Mound

In early fall I decided I wanted to do something a little different with Andrew than our normal walks to the park & playing inside. What could I do? Then, I remembered a beautiful forest preserve park called Johnson's Mound in Elburn. So, I packed up Andrew & Holly and off we went. Andrew loved it! There is lots of walking and exploring to do & Holly loved to be outside running around off leash (for the most part!) Of course, her leash was on her in case of other people or cars so I could grab her quickly...plus Andrew thinks it's a riot to walk her! Andrew loved looking at EVERYTHING - leaves, sticks, rocks - and he loved being able to run around not having to hold my hand the whole time so that he could climb on things and explore the forest floor. We did this twice & had an absolutely wonderful time. It is definitley on my list of things to do when the weather turns nice again!
