For as long as I can remember I’ve had fond memories of Roaring River. My parents took us there regularly, either for the afternoon or for a weekend of camping. I’m not sure exactly what it is, but something about this state park always makes me feel good and relaxed…it’s just a nice place. This past weekend we took the girls for a fun afternoon with their cousins.
We walked up to the big spring and admired the large trout and cold clear water.
It’s unknown how deep the spring is. Divers have explored back as far as 200-300 feet I believe but never any further. I love the clear blue water!
The girls taking a shoulder ride!
We decided to try and do a trail… everyone had a great time!
Eily-Beth went for her first swing ride! As you can see, she loved it!
Hey Ryan, I just discovered your blog while searching for “How to Build a Simple Deck.” What a great find your blog is! I’m Joplin born and raised but have been a Coloradoan for many years. Your photos are gorgeous and made me miss the midwest. Keep up the good work!
P.S. Your deck post was helpful!
Thanks Linda!
