Bailey Arboretum

There are so many places out here on Long Island that we have yet to visit. I have a growing list of things I'd like to do and fortunately the kids are totally up for it. Today we headed out to the Bailey Arboretum. It is a beautiful place, easy to walk trails. Plenty of picnic areas. They have some nice gardening, as well as perfect photo ops. The Children's Habitat leaves open a lot of creativity for the kids. They also a wildlilfe group that helps rescue and care for birds on Long Island.

We had a great visit and will be back soon. If you are out on Long Island and looking for some place to visit on the North Shore? Good place right here.




If there is a critter to be found? Chances are Leah has her hands on it.



Leah took some photos. She played around with the macro lens.

Play and Bugs

We went to Eisenhower Park again. Unfortunately their great new playground was having some work done but we still had a great time. They have a couple of playgrounds so we headed over to one to play for a while.

Leah and Louis looked for grubs in the trees. They managed to find some pretty decently sized ones.
