Natural Falls State Park

I've been wanting to explore Natural Falls State Park again since going on vacation and seeing so many cool waterfalls on the west coast. I'd been there once back in high school but we didn't really stay long we just made a quick stop while we were out driving for driver's ed. Ha! My best friend, Sam, and I were paired together for our driver's ed class and our teacher was awesome. We'd just drive around and get fast food or take him to run errands. It turned out to be pretty fun. Anyway, Fletcher and I decided to stop and check it out since the trees are changing colors and the weather was pretty nice.

exploring familiar places

Saturday we went to Siloam Springs, Arkansas and explored their downtown. First stop was Pour Jon's to grab some delicious drinks. It's one of our favorite coffee shops. After that we walked across the street to a little park that has a pretty little creek and waterfall. We found a staircase that had a path up to a fancy neighborhood. It was really beautiful. We also saw a lone pumpkin growing in a tree! It was so random. We couldn't reach it or we would have rescued it. I let my niece take my camera and snap some photos. She's never used an actual camera before, just her phone. She's 14 but she has a pretty great eye. I think she'd be an awesome photographer one day.
