After overnighting at Grandma and Grandpa’s, we got up and headed toward Valentine, NE. Aunt Kylie and her kids were looking for some entertainment, so we asked them if they would want to accompany us. Though we had to drive separately, we arrived at the park around the same time.
The girls really enjoyed the company of their cousins, Mason and Kinsley.
We crossed the bridge over the Niobrara River.
We stopped to look at the river.
We saw canoes and tubes floating downstream and made a mental note to take part in one of these activities sometime in the future.
We found our post without issue and Mason helped us to get the rubbing.
Then we continued up the path to the falls.
There are two smaller falls along the path. This was the middle of the three.
Soon we approached the big falls.
The girls wanted to get up close. So did Mason and Kinsley.
Aunt Kylie kindly offered to take a family picture before we left.
Zellie enjoyed seeing the falls as well.
She appreciates the beauty of nature.
Finally, we checked out the lowest of the falls.
Mason, Lissie, Clare, and Bernadette posed on the lowest falls.
