McDowell Forest Preserve

8/15/08

We have driven past the entrance to the McDowell Forest Preserve every day since we moved into the vacation home in Naperville.  Today, on a whim, we decided to pull in and check it out.  The kids were excited to take a nature hike with me.

Max was singing this song to the ducks:

Five little ducks went out to play,

Over the hills and far away.

Mama Duck said, "Quack! Quack! Quack!

Four little duckies came running back.

It was a nice, peaceful summer day.
