I wanted to squeeze as much into my short weekend as I possibly could -- you know, to sort of store up the goodness of it all and take it with me this next week. So I promised the boys a nature hike, and we headed to Whitnall Park Saturday afternoon...to the "woods".

Every hiker needs a stick, right?
P.S. they also make good swords
I actually got a self portrait I liked.
That fishing hook on my hat is real -
its from the walleye I caught last year in Minnesota.
We saw all sorts of animals on our walk. There were tons of little fish in this lake.
Nick made sure to spit for them like his Daddy taught him.
Little brother copied.
I'm so proud.
I love "running away" pictures.
Will checked out everything.
I only had to carry him half way.
I love getting away from the city.

Holy Cow! That last one looks like it was taken by a pro! Nicely done :)
what a beautiful spot!
I love running away pictures too.. it looks like you all had a great time.. and I love how you reported back that you only had to carry him back half way..
PS.. cute self portrait!! :)
these are such sweet pictures. I love the one of them by the water and the one where it looks like he's checking out the flowers. More than likely he's checking for frogs or snakes or another sword. And, of course a wonderful self portrait...congrats on the walleye.
Beautiful shots. Looks like you had a great day.
Looks like a beautiful place for a walk.
I love that pic of the boys squatting by the creek.
Hey, hope you aren't made about Michael's comment about WI. He got laid off by the company that he worked for there, and he's bitter. No comments about that on my blog. Don't want to restir his pot. LOL
Those are gorgeous! I can't pick a favorite today!
