THE HIKE:
 |
| Presidents' Day hike with the grandkids! Note that granddaughter Ellie chose her own hiking outfit for the day. |
 |
| Red-tailed Hawk |
 |
| What is that sound? |
 |
| Not liking that train at all. |
 |
| Very early skunk cabbage. |
 |
| Ellie was given the honors of nabbing balloon #11 of the year. |
 |
| We had just commented on what a nice path this was behind Manny's Pond when ... |
 |
| ... about half way along it became very rooted and hard to push the strollers on. |
 |
| Finally the end a a bridge back to the paved path. |
 |
| But we realized Ellie's coat was missing having flown off of the stroller during the bumpy root section. |
 |
| Found it! |
 |
| Uphill towards the Baptist Church Road parking lot where there are ... |
 |
| ... views! That is Spruce Run in the distance. |
 |
| Bugs were out and about and a tick was crawling on the baby, the only one who had not been on the ground! |
 |
| View of Spruce Run from higher up. |
 |
| Taking a break on the bench at Manny's Pond. |
 |
| Back at the parking lot. |
