Today we left the hustle and bustle of DC behind
And set out for Virginia
To Shenandoah National Park
All the fall colors were pretty—
We thought our hike on Fox Hollow trail
Was a lot like something we’d find in Missouri
With a hike under out belts,
We finished our drive to Luray, just outside the park…
To a Jellystone.
And even in the off-season,
A Jellystone doesn’t disappoint!
We tried out the paddlboats
Even Mom and Dad took a ride
(Dad was especially excited—
I think he was just glad to be out of the truck)
The had a pretty good mini golf course
Which we prefer to play like billiards
Hey, hey, Boo-boo!
What we really loved was the bounce pillow.
We played ball well past dark
With our glow-in-the-dark football
It was a gorgeous night
Mom was back in her happy place—
Disconnected in nature
And we were in our happy place—
Mom and Dad splurged for a golf cart!!!
We weren’t supposed to drive it…
But you better believe once the park rangers were gone,
We were out and about all night!
This is a pretty amazing campsite
Just look at that moon and those stars!
