Saturday Snapshot: Possum Hill Hike


Saturday Snapshot is hosted by Melinda at West Metro Mommy Reads.

My husband and I set aside all the undone work at home last weekend and got out for a nice hike on Labor Day. We went to a local park that was just refurbished a bit (the Possum Hill area of White Clay Creek State Park in Delaware) to check out the changes and enjoyed our hike through the woods on a gorgeous day!

Hope you are enjoying the weekend!

  2. I love walking outside among all that nature has to offer. That place reminds me of my favorite place to walk.

    1. Looks like they just put it in a new parking lot, paved the first bit of the trail and maybe did a bit of trail improvement. We hadn't walked here in well over a decade!

  4. What a great way to spend Labor Day! I love to walk and fortunately my husband does too. We imagine we will walk more in the future when we retire.
