A few weeks ago Ella and I went to the
Helmer Nature Center's Harvest Festival. It is a tiny nature center
tucked into a residential neighborhood. Apparently my father worked
there years ago when they were just opening. It was a bit rainy but
we had lots of fun!
Ella got her face painted
And she painted a little pumpkin
They had a cider press so Ella got to
make her own apple cider!
All that hard work paid off, she had
two cups of fresh cider
Ella made a pencil case with paint and
stamps
Before we left we stopped to dance to
some live folk music
We also had some fun inside the nature
center itself. There was a room filled with animals to meet including
a squirrel, bunny, crow, tortoise, tarantula, and a big ball python
that sat on Ella's lap! We had a really great time, and since it is
an annual event I hope I remember to go back again next autumn.
