Hiking at Tecolote Park

Caleb and I used to go hiking at Mission Trails and even Cowles Mountain when we lived in La Mesa. Now that we have moved we needed some new trails to hike so I ventured out to find Tecolote Park. I heard that it was a mini Mission Trails and thought Caleb and I could explore. Unfortunately when we got there the visitor center was closed..but the trails were still open so we started our hike. Caleb was very excited:


The first animal we saw was a little rabbit. He was hiding in the weeds....not sure if you can see him but he is there. Caleb was super excited about seeing him because I had just told him that there weren't any real animals on the trails...but I guess I was wrong.



So we kept hiking until we could find a place to have our breakfast. There was a little bench right underneath a huge tree that seemed to be a resting spot for hikers so we settled there. Caleb ate all of his strawberries and yogurt...yum.




After breakfast we walked some more and came across a little stream. Caleb loved this and right away looked for rocks and anything else he could find to throw in the stream. We spent a good amount of time hanging out here and throwing rocks. I tried to talk to him about life but he wasn't listening. Lol.



Afterwards we decided to head back and play on the little playground they had there. Next time we plan to go back and visit the visitor center to see what cool things they have and hopefully check out some books. Until next time!
