"Exploring" the Neighborhood Trails

Last weekend, a friend suggested that the neighborhood trails, which we have skied and snowshoed hundreds of times in winter but had never laid eyes on in summer, were actually passable now and quite lovely. Well, the mosquitoes have died down a bit, so we put on muck boots and attempted it.

It turns out that the lower trails were still quite boggy and impassable to someone who is trying to have fun:

Roo and Cricket had fun!


It's funny how I know this trail so well, but had never seen it like this!
