From her bedroom, Nikki could hear her grandfather getting his fishing gear together. The excitement of going with him for the very first time was too much for the little girl. He had been ill and said he would enjoy her help and her company.
This is a small park but to Nikki it appeared very large. She would see all kinds of beautiful birds and get to watch beavers build their dams.
As they entered the park they could see the zig zag path that led to a gazebo in the middle of the pond. Grandpa said they would pass it for now. But later, it would be a nice place to have their lunch.
They passed a pier with 2 benches and continued down the path. Grandpa pointed to his left at all the squirrel nests in the trees. Nikki had no idea that squirrels built nests like birds. Grandpa was so smart, she thought.
They came to a bridge on the left. That was the way to the beavers and their dams. You can take a nice short stroll down this path. Grandpa said he wanted to fish first so on they travelled.
Nikki and Grandpa met up with Dawson Lee and decided to take "a breather", as grandpa called it. Grandpa said he had a special surprise for Nikki and she would have to look for it.
To your left are two, old, large twisted maple trees. Behind the left one are downed branches from a nearby dead tree. Look in the middle for what you seek.
Nikki was very happy to see the surprise. She told her grandpa she would always remember this special day and the time they spent together. The End.
