Nerstrand Big Woods State Park ( Second Visit )

I went back to Big Woods State Park this past weekend again to do more park exploration.  I wanted to check out more of the hiking trails within the park.  There are 11 miles of hiking trails total in the park.

I found this single wildflower along the trail to the hidden falls.
Along the Beaver Trail, I discovered another unique tree.  I like to find one on every camping trip.  This one had a piece of wood that grew in between the two trunks.  It looks like a small bench!
The season to come; an early fall-colored leaf on the trail.

Color from above.  The sunlight was shining through these leaves, illuminating them apart from the others.
I stood underneath them and took this shot pointing upward.

Many wildflowers along the White Oak Trail, nearing back to the Visitors Center.

Daddy long-legs! 

I found this single wildflower just steps from my tent. 
This time, my sister Laura and her boyfriend Lance, along with Shelby, came to visit me camping.  They joined me late Saturday afternoon.
The "Hag Stares"... Laura's
Lance's Hag Stare...
And my "Hag stare..." my sister and I call each other Hags!  LOL  :)
Shelby enjoys setting up traps for us to fall into around the camp site.  Here she's busy digging another hole.

Chill time at the site....
Redneck golf!  After a few rounds of the game.
