Take A Hike!
This morning we checked out Placerita Canyon State Park.
We figure we’d better get out and do this stuff before the temps get over 100*…which will be soon enough!
There is a trail to a waterfall, but it was 5 miles round trip! The tikes aren’t quite ready for that just yet, so we hiked to the water tower instead!
Enjoying the view:

My absolute fave pic of the day:
Playing in the creek:
We learned all about owls and this little falcon:
Try explaining “taxidermy” to an almost 5 year old, too! That’s fun….
“Is it dead?”
“Uh, yes it is, Sweetie.”
“Well, why is it’s eyes open?”
“Uh, well…..”
I told her she would learn more about it in school when she gets older! Is that bad???
Seriously, how do you explain that?
Nature sure is tiring:
Hope your weekend has been full of exploring and one adventure after another!

Oh, this is the kind of day you will remember for always! Loved the pictures of the steps! Also, loved the “taxidermy” dialog. I’ve always wondered how they do the eyes, too! Guess, I’ll have to wait for Elliott to tell me when she learns.
Super captures and story telling, Amy and Jay!
