Mother Neff State Park


MOTHER NEFF STATE PARK, MOODY
Despite the awesome Mother Neffing name, we did not stay overnight due to incoming bad weather.  However, we did go hiking on a brisk but lovely Saturday morning the first week of March 2013.  Driving to Mother Neff was interesting because of its endless farmland surrounded by more farmland.  But it will surprise you!  This very small perfectly rectangle park is shocking with its unkept foliage, rotting trees, and rough trails.  What a find!  The "jungle" made it a true adventure to what would otherwise have been a boring trip.  The caves are really interesting and Geo's are everywhere - some pretty easy to find, some not-so-much!  We were completely by ourselves and it felt like trekking through uncharted land (if you ignore the huge wooden signs and chained down wooden benches).  This time we came prepared with our geo-trinkets.   It was here that I decided to keep the treasure hunt alive by drawing pictures and leaving them in the state Geocaches.  If you found this picture then now you know the silhouetted people are my husband and my son.
