Surprises Are Awesome!

 
Learning About:  18th Century Settlers, Spots in Nature, and a surprise visitor at a park!
 
Daniel Boone Homestead, Birdsboro, PA
 
 
 
The area was the boyhood home of frontiersman Daniel Boone from 1734 to 1750. 
Today, this area is reserved as a place to learn about 18th-century settlers in Pennsylvania.  
Here's what's surprisingm this historical spot doubles as a
GREAT location to enjoy trails and walking paths. 
 
 
This site offers friendly landscapes, natural settings, as well as,
polite visits with the resident sheep, geese, ducks, birds, and deer.  
In the spring, the area is blanketed with sweet smells of honeysuckle bushes. 
 
My favorite time to take a walk at the Homestead is at dusk. 
It's so relaxing to watch a glowing sunset!  I often see wildlife at this time!
 
The Reading Public Museum Park
 
 
This is a park in the West Reading Area. 
Look at the Great Blue Heron in the middle of the Wyomissing Creek! 
Whoa! Surprise!
There he was, concentrating on catching his lunch in the stream!

When you take a walk in nature,
always be ready for surprises!

 
This is my cat, Jasmine.  She's so cute!
She was patiently waiting me to finish this blog post.
 
What will we learn about next? 
You'll find out soon!
