Asbury Woods


We took the opportunity to visit Asbury Woods here in Erie last weekend. It is a 200-acre forest nestled in the middle of Erie. Walnut creek runs through it and there are multiple biking/hiking/walking trails there. It was very relaxing!! We skipped rocks along the river and enjoyed each others company. The wildflowers were out and the trees are just staring to bloom. We are thinking in the winter it would be a fun place to snow-shoe! Although we don't wish the next winter to come any quicker than it needs to - the spring weather has been simply fantastic!

Rollerblading by the Bay




After dinner, we went rollerblading along the Bay with Jax. He really pulled on his leash so excited to run beside us. The spring weather has been nice, but Jax has been running off in our neighborhood whenever he gets a chance. Yesterday, he chased after the UPS truck----I thought only cattle dogs chase cars...but no, this Pug does as well. Taking him rollerblading with us tonight helped to get his energy out. The waves were very nice to listen too. It is so peaceful down by the lake. It was a good evening.

Evening at Presque Isle







Went down to the penninsula to grab a burger from Sally's Diner (fun little restaurant with a 1950's theme) and watch the sunset. We saw some wildlife and checked on the fishing houses. We came upon four wild turkeys and also eight deer. It is interesting to think that you can spot a deer near the "beach". We really enjoy driving down there, it is a getaway similar to the mountains. It was a little too cloudy to view the sunset, so Aaron and I skipped rocks instead. That is always fun!
