It's spring break time here. We decided to spend the time exploring Rochester and its offerings. Today's adventure was a trip to Powder Mill park, to see the fish at the hatchery. The hatchery was founded in 1933. They raise brown and rainbow trout and eventually release them into the wild. Victoria had so much fun feeding them. When you throw the food in the water, they all start jumping for it and reminded me of piranhas.
Up close and personal with the trout. These were 4-5 yr old brown trout.
Another feature of the park is the mushroom house. Its a private residence and has been there since I was a child and I'm sure long before that. They are set quite far from the road and it is hard to photograph them. The bottom of the house is a thick mushroom stem type design; they are actually quite high up in the air, near the treeline.
