Historic McConnell Springs

Monday the kids and I ventured out to Historic McConnell Springs for a hike. I didn't realize until we arrived that it was historic, we just wanted to take a nature walk. My kids love nature, but they haven't seen nature like this since we were in Gatlinburg! It was awesome!!!

Savannah found two turtles in the pond and they were actually letting her pet them....

until we saw the sign specifically asking people not to touch them....oops!

Taking a rest along the trail

We reached the first spring called the Boils...notice the bubbling water between the girls

We reached the last spring called The Final Sink

Savannah really wanted to get it but again, there were signs :) Savannah then expressed how much she really didn't care for rules :)

We had a great time visiting the springs and hopefully will go back again once we have googled it's historic past!
