Day 6 Saturday

March 3 Saturday
Cool morning to wake up to but no snow and still wearing shorts. A leisurely start to our day today with a light breakfast. Off we went to the west to try and find a spot alongside the river that they had visited two years ago. After a pit stop for directions we found a spot to eat, found Coach’s Pub & Eatery in Dunnellan. As usual the food was acceptable along with a couple of wines. We then progressed to Rainbow Springs Park. As it turned out there was an art fair being held there. We walked down to the waters edge, the water was crystal clear. So much so that we could watch the fish swim around the dock, they looked like bluegills and bass. There were a number of black mergansers and a turne then suddenly we heard the hooting of a great horned owl. The park reminded me of a big swampy area, the beauty of the moss hanging from the trees, the lichen on the tree trunks and fan shaped palms.
