Fall at the Ray Harral Nature Park

bootsbw bridge fall hugs leaves myboys path pathways petals skirt walk walkingI was starting to develope a twitch from the need to be in the woods.

This is just a little patch of woods surrounded by houses and buildings but it still helped me breathe deeper.

I did not want to leave.

The Ray Harral Nature Park is located off 121st(Tucson St) east of Elm.

It is behind the school.

If you use the address from the Broken Arrow site to get directions be sure to use google maps.

The other map sites do not always lead to the park.

tisforTARANTULA!

Yes, I did search through the boys blocks to find the T…

This is only the second one I have seen(I am aware they are still around though) at our house.

We see them often on walks and while out hiking though.

They are really pretty docile, this guy let us follow him all over the yard.

I was expecting a Wolf Spider.

They are pretty big but less hairy.

I yelled for them to watch him so I could grab my camera.

Yes, I was worried I would not get a picture of him.

They have been watching WAY too much Wild Kratts and think everything should be named now.

Do you have these guys where you live?
