Hayden Run Falls

This past weekend, the husband and I ventured to Dublin to run a few errands (and I have to mention – an amazing lunch at 101 Beer Kitchen was had – definitely check out this spot if you haven’t before!) and we had time for quick stop at Hayden Run Falls Park.

    Whenever we get out-of-town visitors, we always take them there. 🙂 Unfortunately, early spring, after the snow melts, is the best time for the water flow, but it’s usually rather cold still then. And even with the stairs, it can be a difficult time for anyone who isn’t in decent shape. It’s definitely worth a trip, though!

    I went there today for the first time. With all the rain we’ve had in the last week the falls have grown to be about 3 times the size!

    We went there last year. 🙂 I bet it’s pretty impressive right now with all of the rain we have had lately!

This was intentional & planned before what happened this week. Just because I’ve been silent on here doesn’t mean I haven’t been speaking out in real life. I chose to listen on here, quite a lost art that I’m personally working on improving this year. 🤍 I’ll leave you with this: The other day, Ava and I were reading Parker Looks Up, one of the books we’re reading this month. 📖 She looked at me and said, “I love her skin Mommy. Isn’t it pretty?” Yes, my dear it is. ❤️
