"A family hike"

The kids and I had a fabulous hike at Flandreau last fall.  It was beautiful.  The water was out of the sand-bottomed pool, so we played in the sand and ran up and down the sides.  We packed a lunch and hit the trail.  Lots of natural environment.  Fallen trees to walk, nice grass trails, some trail is along the river.  We (I) did get a little lost with the forks in the road and no map.  We made it, but at one point I did end up carrying both 1 year old and 3 year old.  A true test of my motherly abilities!

"Flandrau State Park"

Every Sunday evening found our family enjoying a picnic and a swim at this state park.  There is a sand bottomed clorinated pond.  We also liked to hike some of the trails and watch for deer.  There are bathrooms, showers and a concession stand in a beautiful stone building built by the WPA.  In the winter it is a great spot for crosscountry skiing.
