This is our backyard...well almost, we live 2 houses away. This forest
is called Camassia Natural Area and the Camas lilies are in full bloom.
We didn't want you to miss it, so Charley and I will give you a tour.
Jump over this little stream...
Look, a deer bed...
Into the forest...
Here is the boardwalk...
Follow me...
The pond is off of this trail, we like to stomp in the mud, says Charley...
A camas lily...
We are taking the loop trail today...
You can click on these pictures to make them bigger...its so beautiful here!
Looking behind us...
Charley knows the way...we come in here 3-4 times a week during the winter and spring.
This is the way the boys will walk to high school...how cool is that?!
We stop to look for frogs...we never see any, just their bubbles.
We suspect something lives in here, but we aren't checking...skunks.
Looking back, we picnic on these rocks.
Soaking in nature...off to the far left is the high school.
Look who we see! There is a whole family back here.
Max joins us today...
Back into the forest...
Must stop and poke...banana slugs in the spring and salamanders in the winter.
Some bird watching...
Watch your step...ewww
Fungus...
And back home. The air smells so clean and earthy. You always feel better after a walk in the forest! Thanks for joining us!
