We had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed the three days off. I could have taken more. I insisted to randal that we “do” something so that the weekend didn’t roll by like most of them do. So, we research virgin timber and headed south of paoli to the Pioneer Mother’s Memorial Forest. The trees were big, the weather was warm, the sun was out. It was great.
We started with a picnic on the grass.
Mickey Mouse led the way.
The trees are tall and beautiful. While lacking the majesty of the redwoods, we felt right at home aMidst the jungle green.
This one loved the hike and wanted to walk and pick all of the leaves. Somehow, we need to differentiate between our garden lettuce and everything else.
It was a longer hike home, but we kept moving by singing the whole time. A little bit of raffi, a little bit of John Denver, and a little bit of random folk songs from my own childhood.
A success and memorable, sweaty, and wonderful visit!
