2013 Field Trips: The Letchworth State Park, NY

While visiting family, we took the advantage of good fall weather and took a day trip to the Letchworth State Park in New York. Our main goal was to enjoy the beautiful fall colors and changing leaves, but we were treated to much more.

The kids got to see a 'real live' dam.

The park was rich in fall color and in trees we do not see in Texas. Beside the maple tree, the kids learned to recognize the birch and the weeping willow.

More falling water! The Upper Falls at the Letchworth Park.

This is known as the 'Grand Canyon of the East'.
