Bok Tower w/Lil Sis


Friday Hunter and I spent the day at Bok Tower in Lake Wales with my "little sister" (Big Brothers Big Sisters). She had never been and it has been one of my favorite places to go since I was a little girl. Wasn't too awful hot and mostly shady anyway. She really liked when the squirrels came right up to you in hopes of a treat. We walked around the peaceful gardens then enjoyed a picnic at the top of the hill ("Iron Mountain") by the tower. It was breezy and relaxing. We ate our lunch to the chimes of the old bell tower and the "old timers" singing away to the tunes, which she thought was really funny. Hunter had fun crawling around the blanket and kept trying to snatch the bag of Cheetos. He never gave up and eventually got hold when she and I were talking and Cheetos went everywhere! What a special day to spend together with time to talk about life and enjoy God's beautiful creation. Great place to go if you have never been. Afterwards, we had ice cream at the new McDonald's and jammed out in the car while heading home. Another great time together!
