Riverbend Park

May 11, 2009
Riverbend Park
Catawba County, North Carolina


Easy walking with the family for Mother's Day
This was T's first trip since breaking his ankle in December
He was ready to hit the trail to High Shoals Falls at South Mountains State Park but I wanted to do something less involved to test his ankle.
We started off on the green trail, passed a couple meadows, saw the pond then switched to the red trail to go along the riverbank.
Animal sightings: frogs, lizards, a box turtle that wouldn't come out of his shell, a green snake, and butterflies
As we walked, the girls identified trees particularly the tulip poplars and cedar trees.
