For some reason we always forget how close the various entrances of Eno River State Park are to the house (like, around 15 minutes, tops). So today we packed up a once again refusing-to-take-a-morning-nap Griff and headed over to Few’s Ford for some splashing around before lunch.

Griff loved it. It’s the first time he’s been in any body of water bigger than a bathtub, but he charged right in, even though the water temperature was somewhere between bone-chilling and screech-worthy.

Mommy even showed him how to throw rocks into the water and make a big “plunk”.

Griff conked out in the car on the way home and has been sleeping now for about 2 hours. 🙂
