We hiked this morning at Great Falls Park in Potomac, Maryland, just about a 20 minute drive from our home. Hope you are enjoying your weekend!









Oh, Great Falls! My family moved from the DC area 4 years ago … and I must say that Great Falls is one of the places we miss most!
Thanks so much for sharing your photos : ) Looks like a great day!
You could make a family inspirational poster out of this! Hehehehehe! You are lucky to live near such a beatiful place! Glad you got to get out and enjoy it!
What a great post! Loved the photos and the lessons (I thought perhaps Great Falls? after the first…how fun to see that it was indeed). Such a beautiful day today, no?
My favourite is the find your inner peace picture. That one is awesome!
I agree you could definitely make a poster out of this. Your choice of words matched the pics perfectly. What a neat place! I wish we lived near someplace like this. It looks like a fun place to hang out. Thanks for sharing!!
So glad you and the fam got out and enjoyed the weather! We aren’t too far from you, might have to check Potomac Falls park out! We love to take hikes and love that we have so many nice ones nearby!
Good lessons learned…

Wow, can’t believe how much that looks like a riverbed in MN. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3227/2680847035_1bc1f5471f_t.jpg
Looks like fun Betz!

Hey Betz,
Hasn’t the weather been great?! I too took advantage of it with one of my daughters, we did a mother/daughter weekend. We are now walking everyday.
I just love, love the little one’s “inner peace,” just precious.
I thought that was Great Falls! My in-laws live in Rockville, MD and my kids have done (and loved) that hike, too.
