It was really more of an "exploratory walk" than a hike, but fun none-the-less.
We threw leaves...
We climbed trees...
We met old friends... (do you recognize them Margaret?)
We relaxed...
And no trip out there is complete without time to play in the dirt pile.... Well, it was a dirt pile summer of last year, now it is becoming part of the landscape, but the memories of my children didn't forget it - they are "rebuilding" their house.
Then before we could drag them away, my little naturalist was at it again...
She pulled up this piece of grass and excitedly came to show us that it has roots. We had to bring it home so that she could trace it. Then after leaving it with us, she went a few steps away and started to pull up other shoots of grass all the while muttering "Nope, no roots on this one" each time she'd pick another blade. :)
