Labor Day at Yellowwood State Forest


On the Monday of Labor Day weekend, Emily and I packed up the hiking stuff, lunch, snacks, drinks and BAILEY and headed south. We spent a few hours hiking a trail through Yellowwood State Forest.

There wasn't much elevation change, but we enjoyed the walk and Bailey loved the woods. After we got back to the car, we decided to find a place to picnic by the lake but we never did see it. Emily was navigating from a tourist type map which 'ran out' when we went far enough north! We knew that we had to end up east and north of where we were so we just kept driving and turning and eventually came upon Johnson County Park. We pulled in and found a great picnic spot.
