Fun Fact: For over 100 years Hawkes have been visiting Bloomington Lake. Our children are a sixth consecutive Hawkes generation to make the trip. Knowing that Grandpa Jim Hawkes would travel their late in the evening, after milking the cows, for a Father & Son Campout in the '50s makes the place more meaningful. Also, to read family history about the Grandpa of Grandpa Jim Hawkes taking his children their at midday, between milkings, for a picnic lunch is wonderful.

The boardwalks and bridges provide for a unique experience among the flora and fauna of the high mountain springs.

Snake grass is an amazing natural novelty for young and old alike.
On the way home we stopped at a Redbox and rented Mall Cop. With some help, the children prepared movie snacks.
Something about the parents' room makes movies better.
