Blenheim Bridge & Blenheim-Gilboa Hydro-Electric Plant


And if we thought the boys didn't have enough opportunity to run at the sunflower field earlier in the day, we decided to stop at the longest single span covered bridge in the world for the boys to run some more! Up & back, up & back; those boys can go!













Then for our green Daddy, we stopped in at the New York Power Authority's Blenheim-Gilboa Hydro-Electric Power Plant visitors center for a little education!

But first a little rest for Babushka & the Cheetahs...




...but not for long. The little predators spotted a rabbit & off they went.



Inside the visitors' Center the kiddos learned how the plant works, about some native mammals & fish and they even had hands-on opportunities to put their knowledge into action.

Not sure how much they actually learned, but Daddy enjoyed  it!
