Drake Park and beyond part 2

Ok so want to finish with these photos of Drake Park, didn't want to bore you too much with individual photos.
Click on photos for larger size
So i think i told you that my Princess gets car sick, so we ended up heading up towards the mountain were we saw signs that said Lava Island Falls so went on that road to check it out. Ok we have lived here for 15 yrs, been by that sign a
hundred times i am sure. Never stopped so what a great find this is. Only problem is its only a day park. So camping here is not allowed .
In the background you can see the lava rocks which we have lots of around here.
I just found this tree interesting , settled in on the bank.Can't say they are much of a fall but its pretty anyways.Ok so check out the website about the falls, No wonder these didn't look like much of a fall. Geesh!
So after we left here my camera battery went dead, so we thought we might as well go home, as Princess was having a good time outside, but slubbering up a storm when she had to get back in the car.
So off we head for home. In the meantime i noticed that P was starting to regurgitate, i tell Nevada he better find a place to stop, OOOOOH NOOOOO! Too late! She went all over me. Well the rest of this trip will continue tomorrow as we will go back and finish the rest of the trip. More great photos to share. Without the dog.

I couldn't help but laugh at your descriptions of the trip. Especially when P went all over you.LOL. Sorry!
The scenery and those rocks are fascinating. YOu didn't get to see the falls either!!
Sometimes you can find the best things close to home.
