Hiking
Ian, Molly and I went hiking today. We had a very lovely time. Ian made the request yesterday and he made it around a .8 mile loop today. We saw squirrels, a bright lime green colored snake, which jumped off the board walk when we got too close, two deer, and a green lizard that let Ian touch it several times and thus became "my friend". Here's a picture of Ian in his hiking hat and shirt waving the two leaves that he carried around the path to show daddy he had been hiking.

Well, I am certainly feeling like thumbing my nose up at all the moms who've had to send their kids back to school now that the weather is decent. Today we made ice cream and played outside.
I expect Ian to be able to hike with me next time he's out here. A good friend has the hiking rule for kids - one mile per hour. That allows plenty of time for checking out all the bugs. Sounds like you had a good wildlife experience!
Yeah...I've never seen a bright green snake before. Especially one that jumps. Do you know what kind it was? Out here there are just boring little lizards and sand crabs.
I don't know what kind of snake it was. It was shaped and sized like a plain old garter snake, but the bright lime green color wasn't the usual variety.
