Exploring Middle GA: Dauset Trails Nature Center

We promised JB "an adventure" a couple weekends ago, settling on a quick (2 hour) trip to Dauset Trails Nature Center.  We found this Nature Center two years ago when we were at High Falls and passed the signs.  We tried to go then but the multiple warnings of "NO PETS" turned us away (we had the dog child).  Now, two years and one additional child later, we tried again while leaving (a sad) Enda at home.

The Nature Trail - totally free, by the way - boasts trails, wild animals, and farm animals.  We saw otters, lots of owls, a cougar, bears, cows, pigs, horses, goats, and even a bald eagle.

I even brought the big camera with us, hoping to catch adorable pictures of the children.  Only got a few - not because they're not adorable (they are) but because they are way too fast and distracted to sit still for a picture!

The grounds were beautiful, and I'm kicking myself for not packing a picnic lunch! Next time for sure.  (We also forgot any type of stroller or wagon, then Maryn  rubbed a blister and required constant carrying.  So we got a good arm workout.)

Love these little adventures with the family!
