Girls First Day Hike

After a good breakfast that included mini waffles, we took care of the popcorn disaster from the night before, then headed out onto our trail in the maple woods.  The usual leader blazed the path for us, while her colleague took up her position in the rear so as to keep an eye on the younger of the three.

Jumping over the fallen trees, stretching across bridges, climbing rocks, and filling the creek with rocks was more than the fourth, and youngest of all, could keep up with though. He still did not quite have the sea legs for all that.  He remained at the homestead enjoying an afternoon siesta, later celebrating our safe return with us and the hot chocolate.
