Daddy-Daughter Trip - Day 5

We woke up and went to Bob Evans for breakfast. It was really good and we had pancakes, eggs and potatoes (Brenna had grits too!). We stopped at the Canyon Rim visitors center and showed the ranger our Junior Ranger books. She gave us patches for getting our workbooks done and some stickers. Then we drove to Summersville Lake. First we stopped for some sub sandwiches to take for a picnic. We were glad to be at the lake today - it was really hot!!! We swam in the shallow water - letting the cold water cool us off - and then we played games. We played "Marco Polo" and "Find the Rock" and then Daddy threw us up in the air! We had a lot of fun at the lake - we like it better than the ocean. When we were done swimming, we had ice cream at "Fat Eddie's." Next, we went to Babcock State Park and saw an old grist mill. It was really interesting and pretty. We got to walk on more rocks and saw a pretty water fall. We drove over to see the place where John Henry made a tunnel through a mountain - he died after he was through. We went back to Grandview to talk to the rangers again and saw some more beautiful views. On the way back to camp we had dinner at Pizza Hut - yummy! We went to bed when we got to our campsite.
