On Friday, the kids and I went with my Mom and explored the Conservation Club down the road from my parent’s house. When I was growing up, we were there often, exploring and enjoying the paths. Once we went with a friend’s older brother, who took us through some unknown territory, but we usually stuck to our favorite paths.
Friday we discovered that we missed a lot of great spots growing up! Andrea discovered a neat bridge and then she and Mom found a path that took them near the river. We were running short on time, so we could not explore that path, or my favorite one growing up. We plan to visit what we always called the “CC club” again soon. I know it should be the EC -Elkhart Conservation-Club, but I much prefer our childhood mistaken name.
