Bell Cow Lake ~Chandler, Ok

Leave a comment

We went to Oklahoma City on Father’s Day.

The drive home can be a little bit monotonous so my husband wanted to know if there was any place to stop and hike.

That is how we found Bell Cow Lake near Chandler, Ok.

It has two trails.

The Redbud Trail (22 miles) and the Flat Rock Trail (12.4miles).

We went around five miles total on the Flat Rock Trail.

These are both equestrian trails so they are pretty rough to walk on.

They both go around the lake though!

I love walking near water!

You could not see it the whole time but you could feel it in the air.

So nice!

They do charge an entrance fee so check out their site beforehand so you can have the right amount of cash.

It was a really nice surprise! Maybe we can make this a regular stop on the way back from OKC.

Maybe next time I will be prepared and not wearing sandals!

I felt exposed hiking in Oklahoma without my hiking boots!

For Father’s day we headed to Oklahoma City to visit the Sam Noble Museum of Natural History.

My husband likes doing things together so I thought it would be a perfect Father’s day outing!

Plus, father’s got in free!!!

It was $5 total for all of us to get in (my boys were free)!

I was not sure what to expect but it was amazing!

Lot’s to see and touch!

My boys loved it!

There was something in every area that the boys could touch or interact with.

And a lot of dinosaurs!

Of course my boys did not care about that part…

Boys do not like dinosaurs, right?

They have an Asian dinosaur exhibit going on right now.

It included a scavanger hunt!

My oldest loved it!

He kept saying, “I am a SCIENTIST!”

My oldest also loved the touch screens.

We all ended up having a good time!

My oldest asked as we were leaving when we could come back again.

I think it was a hit!
